Floor/diffuser is off

My project for this weekend was to get the floor off of the car so that I can start disassembling and painting the rear suspension.  I also want to clean the bellhousing and the gearbox.  So the first thing was to get the car up in the air.


It was relatively easy to get the floor off.  The only thing that was a pain was that there were three different sizes of Allen head screws.


Once the floor is off you can really see how little there is to the back of the car.  There is no frame, the whole drivetrain is stress mounted to the back of the tub.  The black metal frame is a spacer taking the place of the engine, then there's the light gray bellhousing and the gearbox bolts to the back of the bellhousing.


The rear suspension mounts directly to the bellhousing and the gearbox case.  And the rear wing bolts to the top of the gearbox.
