Bent or not!!! Chassis that is!

Just got really scared!

Took a few more piccies of the chassis construction tonight, when my better half said "the back looks bent!"



I went to check and all is straight as a die!

Must be an optical illusion

Well I hope so!

(Oh main point of post was to show all how I'm getting on thats all really!)

that would be the camera lens then
cameras do funny things. My chassis looks pink in my archive !

Classic wide-angle lens distortion!

Why does the top rail look more bent than it's twin?

Cheers,

I would worry more about the front end If I were you, looks like a dogs hind leg



no just kidding you.

distortion by lens.

I would have thought measuing the diagonals with some non-strtcy string or wire would tell ya if it is or not.

usually viewing two parallel bars and looking for light in between them is a good way of testing.

It's because the camera isn't on chassis centerline. You can tell by the driveshaft tunnel tubes.
