What happens here
Moving to the rear interior, various features are pointed out, including a green cooler, a squirrel cage blower (an 80s electric motor) possibly for cooling, and a fire extinguisher mounted on the floor. The exposed wheel tubs reveal rivet holes from previous crush panel replacements, illustrating how body damage was repaired in racing by riveting new panels over damaged areas. The floor pan design, with cutouts for the truck arm, is also shown, emphasizing the functional and repair-oriented nature of race car construction. A wooden block used as an accelerator pedal extension is also highlighted.
Goal: Observe practical racing features and repair indications within the rear interior.
