My car has shorter wishbones to fit the new 180cm wide track regulations instead the 200cm track the 025 normally had.
The wishbones are properly made, not made from water pipes as you would expect for showcar use.

Any thoughts?
Yes there are pictures that Jos Verstappen is testing the Tyrrell 025 back in 1997 adjusted to the 1998 regulations. If I recall correctly they were the first to test with a car based on the 1998 regulations. Chassis no. was 025X.
