The front suspension cannot trace its lineage to anything; it's a clean-sheet design with roll centers optimized specifically for the '33's center of gravity. Relocating the engine rearward improved the car's balance primarily, but it gave the engineers greater packaging latitude. For example, the upper control arms are actually cantilevers that link to coil-sprung Koni mono-tube dampers between the radiator and engine. Adjustments on the lower arms determine camber and caster since the upper arms rotate upon fixed pivots. Though not visible here, the design employs a rack-and-pinion steering gear (an electric-assist system is available as an option). View Related Article
