Here I am again.
I removed all the body to chassis fixing bolts and body is ready to be lifted (I am preparing a tool/jig to lift it without deformations).
In the meaning I stripped down some other parts I had access to (i.e. front damper, steering box, throttle linkage, ecc).
I was a bit concerned about the steering box because I noted that it was too high compared to the pictures of other 65 competition.
I measured tha angle between chassis rails and steering column and found it was incorrect (37° instead 33°1/2... please correct me if I am wrong)
I was afraid that the steering box was not original. Instead I was happy to find a shim under the rear bolt securing the box to the chassis rail and now I suppose the box is correct for a sport chassis. Can you confirm?
