10:1 says it's the one being talked about on Pistonheads -in which case I think the conclusion was that it wasn't a Westy, but they
couldn't decide what it was! However their knowledge base is far inferior to Locostbuilders, after all we can even answer Q's that
haven't actually been asked
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

If its the one on piston heads it looks like a MK locost chassis [ not a indy ] the back axle is mk the front bones look like mk locost
But i may be wrong  but i don't think so

Sitting in my garage
You may have read elsewhere that I was having a bit of a rough time with the engine that was built for me. It was carp.
I then built my own engine. It went bang. Not to be outdone and a sucker for punishment I built another. This....so far has held together. However i
am putting the engine that was built for me back in the car and I will run it. I have my reasons and it may see me burning even more bridges in the
rotary world but I am quite confident that my own built engine will be good and I have also linked up with one of the most knowledgable and
experienced rotary builders in the states for tech info and advice.Fingers crossed I will be at the Abingdon sprint in June
