Hi,

Can someone confirm the height of the chassis where you climb in and the width across the car.

Just trying to measure up for my full MK cage in my Locost.

Cheers,

Pat...

Just got to fill up the copper pipe with hot water and plumb it in and hey presto - central heating!

Pat...

bloody hell. those side panels look nice.

did you buy them in?

Nope, professionally folded with my secret weapon

What do you think of the cage design?

Pat...

Yep, nice cage.... you could have your own little zoo

the cage looks really nice, but will that extreme bend to get it to run parallel to the dash kill all the strength in the front upright?

dunno what the standard cage looks like though, and i'm sure the 'experts' will be along soon.

tom

good point Tom!

Pat could you add some triangular bracing plates/webs on the inside of the sharp bend?

Car's coming along well though - reckon you'll get it done before the bairn arrives?

I haven't finished mine yet and we're just about to move house (knocking walls down, new kitchen etc) and then the bairn arrives at xmas. Oh well, next year it is then

Cheers

Looks a bit extreme in the pic, but will (should) look like this (from Shorties archive) when it's done.

Hi Nic - no chance before the ikkle one arrive - 4 weeks and counting.

Waiting on parts more than anything - and the money to pay for them.

Are we both aiming for Newark next year - pints are on me!

Newark sounds good to me!

Can you fit baby seats to these cars?

Cheers
Nick

No, but I'm sure I can knock up a bolt in cradle instead of a pssenger seat!
