My F27 is very narrow compared to others, so depends on what you want to build.

Chassis alone:
Locost is 42"
Haynes Roadster is 44"

You'll need to factor in some extra for suspension.
And obviously while building you'll need additional room around the chassis (I tried the 12inches each side game - it doesn't work very well)
