Overview
The all aluminium body underframe is bonded using an immensely strong hot-cured XD4600 red adhesive.
The rear quarter panels, roof and side mouldings are bonded to the structure using cold-cured 2810 MV adhesive. The curing cycle is improved by using a hot air impingement system. In addition, the roof panel is connected to the rear quarter panels through ultrasonic welds.
The composite front wings are bolted to the structure.
At no time should the body structure be subjected to temperatures in excess of 120°C (248°F).
