I'll see if I can correct that, if not perhaps one of the moderators would be kind enough to do so ?
Agree on the Duck type axle, however there were quite a few of these little single seaters built out here and both our green one and the sister car, the Blue Job have this upside down front axle and both were built circa 1949-1952, so we replicated it.
In retrospect I'd probably have gone with the Duck type given that we didn't make Simola last year due to the delay in the body and I shelved it from May to December. But I have lots of other things to finish first..... It's taken about 5 months cumulatively to get this far, so another 3 months should see us ready for Classic Friday at Simola on the 4th May.
I'll post more pictures later

Hi Greig, as a metal shaper myself, I can really appreciate the quality of the panels that you've formed. A great bit of work; well done. You've done a fantastic job of the frame which underpin a really beautiful body.
