very strange!

just noticed something very strage on the ip website

http://www.ipengineering.co.uk/page73.html

you can just see the wheels through the gaps and it looks like the body has just been thrown on a loose chassis because the wheels dont line up as they should with the axle boxes :?

Doesnt have to be perfect.
the body is the main thing.

Probably the chassis just hasnt been fixed to the body, and is not straight

I don't think it has any wheels TBH.

I think it's the wire from (perhaps) a battery box in the "engine compartment" to the switch??
