New plan ready for review

Although I didn't win the eBay auction for a CX500 today I'm continuing to plan to trike one.

What I've come up with so far is at http://www.carcentric.com/CX500trike.htm and I'd like feedback on the subframe design and driveshaft (propshaft) angle issue in particular.

Bought a '79 CX500 Custom - work has commenced

Picked it up February 26, 2004, for US$620 (a pretty good deal). Already have several square-tail Spitfires for the rear end, so my next acquisition will be some square tubing for the trike subframe . . . .
