5,5:1, exactly the same as on my FG as i have borrowed the gears from it to get the right mesh So now i can change the gearing "the right way", like 16/48, 18/46, 20/44/, 22/42 and so on so i know it will mesh up properly like on my FG.

The bearing holders where the bevel gears are have you seen before, their earlier life was the first batch of steering knuckles for the Capri

At first i was going to make it conventional, but i ran into some space-issues so i thought "let's try this" Now i am going to make some kind of swaybar setup in front, as it has only one shock it will easily roll. I notice it when i wiggle the car from side to side that the only thing that keeps it kind of stable is the rear suspension.

I started on the front sway bar today, for you who have seen one before you know what it will look like in the end, for you who don't, just keep on wondering about it for a little while I have also moved the servo to the opposite side for practical reasons.
