If it is a motorsport variant your after then there is only one model to hunt down and use, The Stuart Taylor ( STM ) versions made specifically for
competition use.( very few and rare ) As with all reference to the Furies and phoenix and strikers used with great success in the 750Mc Kitcars and
RGB championships, They where all specials non of the highly successful ones are based on what you can buy direct from current manufacturers JPS RAW
Fisher Etc Etc.
However if it is the shape / style you are liking then track down Rob Johnston at Cyanna cars. He is the only person who is currently manufacturing
this style of car purpose built for competition use.

I believe the chassis was manufactured by Caged? Supposed to be the best out there.
However, for speed events it would be a bit dubious with the regs, as it is a different chassis of which they never made 20 in 12 consecutive months.
That would technically place you in sports libre.
My personal opinion is much the same as Sam's. I do a good selection of hillclimbs and sprints and in Modified Specialist Production I have yet
to see a full bodied car do well. Not to say they couldn't though.

Call Tim Gray Motorsport. Tim often knows where to find the desirable chassis'.

Here's another uninformed view from someone who's never seen one on the move: they look great.
Secondly, any car that you compete in has to be considered potentially expendable, and by the time you trade in the 'Van and get something else,
you could have (gasp!) had an off in the new one, but be out as much, or more money, overall, than if you'd kept the original car and pranged
that one. Justifications, therefore, are not necessary, in my opinion!
