Just wondering if its ever been done, as in a complete f/g body over a Locost chassis.
Its just that i'm thinking of endless possibilities for my new car, and considering just dropping a body similar to a Quantum Napier over a
widened, lenghted Locost.
Mmmmmm great minds think alike, wuz contemplating the very same subject the other day, had thought of the lotus 11 type body but looks a bit "old
hat". I have a vision but not got space to do the jig yet for the plug yet I need to clear some space and move some boat moulds about a bit, but
its on the list of things to do 2004. However I suspect to get the proportions looking right the car might need to be a wee bit longer. Then again
when ya look at the Lmp lookalikes why bother going to all that trouble it might just be as well with a fresh sheet of
paper
Shug.
Could i suggest checking out darrens Courgar Racing Web Site- he's selling the triton lotus 11 type body.

Looked at them already, nice as the 11 is its still dated, and notwithstanding the cost of producing a decent plug/mould I HATE buying someone elses
stuff if I think I can do it myself. The trick is a) finding the time b) producing somthing that make u go instead of a big bit of jobbie u all
laugh at
Shug.
Depends the reason u want people to go
The onyx fastcat in Novs Which Kit certainly made me go . Probably not for the right reason!
A car that has fell out of the ugly tree, and hit every branch on the way down.
IMHO......
No kidding, thats NOT the jawdropping look I want
Shug.
Can't believe they've actually sold any of these

Was hoping we'd seen the last of that car!

I found this pic a while back, don't have any more details than whats in the pic. the body is apparantly dropped over a standard westfield
chassis (which isn't too different from a locost)

full bodied westfield

Possibly somthing they knocked up to try and sell some for the sports 2000 series, looks good though dont know how robust it would be in use.

Mmmmm.
Not only does it look like a steaming pile of freshly excreted shyte, it's front wheel drive. Poor thing. Never stood a chance.
