Believe it or not, the frame is actually the Jag frame, heavily modified by Robert. He built the front cross-member and the rear kick-ups and IRS mounting provisions. As for the power steering, Robert informs me that I lied. The weight, with everything stacked on the car on scales, is closer to 2100#. Tony Woodward felt that would be light enough for manual steering.
