This photo is actually a bit old. The wedge arm that attached to the left window motor is missing, and was in the process of being replaced at the time. The side panels have also since been reattached. (curiously, there appear to be several revisions of the same panel. I know that there wasn't a practice bot that year, so i'm going to assume they were either spares or improperly cut)

I had to swap the left motor for a carbon copy of the one on the right (making it no longer competition legal ) because we didn't have any hubs that fit the output shaft of the origional motor.
We had some unused angle aluminum stock in the pile, all I had to do was make a few cuts cuts and attach a new hub.
Now, it just needs a paint job.

I'll work on the arm once I figure out how to make the tetra corner connectors.
