To me it still seems relevant. It's a thread about streamlining outboard front wheels/suspension and we're still on that topic.

On a tangent, the Citroen TPV prototype is one of my favorite car styling exercises. Like a mini-Voisin!

Ok, here is a 2CV suspension schematic. It uses leading/trailing swingarms both connected to shock absorbing cylinders under the floorboards. Quite ingenious, really. Wouldn't it be difficult to implement in a home-built car?
