Making 1930's Grand Prix suspension

In this video, I have started the modifications to the VW beetle front beam assembly to make it more closely resemble the original Auto Union design. This is the first group of modifications, more still need to be done unfortunately.

00:27 Proper research. Love the drawing and the sources with the various evolutions of it.

Research is the name of the game for a replica!

You probably know that stock Bug brakes aren't all that great or are you going with something else? I must comment i am impressed with your skill set, you seem to be able to do it all, the Auto Union Type C will be awesome!

They are fairly abysmal even for a lightweight car haha!! My plan is to run a large disc brake setup and build a cover that is shaped like a dish that covers the back side of the rotor/caliper to make it look like the very large diameter original finned drums the Type C had. Thanks very much for the compliment and the interest!!!

Would you consider large aluminium finned drum brakes if available?​@@zwickauracingworks
