HI All

ive been looking at the SSC MX5 chassis conversion drawings for the original locost chassis . The whole thing looks quite comprehensive but one thing has me stumped . There are several diagrams for different chassis peices that are given numbers like U1 and U2 but i cant find an overall diagram that shows where thes parts are supposed to go . Ive looked at the original locost plans but they dont seem to match up

Cheers

I am almost certain that you will need to use the SSC mx5 plans in conjunction with the book.

The book I refer to is: the Haynes publication. " Build your own sports car on a budget " , written by Chris Gibbs.

I suspect you may be looking at the original Ron Champion book.

afaik
The Haynes/Gibbs book is now out of print.

You may be lucky & find a used one on the net.

AHA and the fog clears

Thanks

Just found this when i searched for Chris Gibbs chassis

Good find

Yes, that's the main chassis diagram that will help you make sense of the SSC alterations.

Hope your build goes well.

Wow I didn't realise the newer book was no longer in print.
