Continued F40 chassis conversion work

Continued with modifications to chassis:
- removed most of the front structures not relevant to race car. made a compromise by removing most of the bridge over from suspension, but leaving some material on the sides to keep it's strength. not willing to fully re-create racing frame
- adjusted front of the floor to fit inside Fujimi's body
- re-made rear firewall from Fujimi and Tamiya parts. not 100% accurate, but most of this build will not be very accurate anyway
- made some rising side blocks on the floor, so it fits well inside Fujimi's middle body
Next will attempt to re-create bigger front radiator of the race car and structures holding it in place. Will also think about scratch making bigger turbo intercoolers and turbo air intake boxes used in race car
