Hey Cooky
Fabulous work -- but I have a question
My steering system has handlebars so I might be talking out my ass
The tie rods? connected to the steering rack seem to be at a big angle and looks like the ends of the rack might bend.
Does this angle give better steering geometry?
cheers Bones

Cookey, this is impressive, you have skills. Is the nose cone the spinner off an A36 bonanza?
