stop being rubbish everyone! 
to be fair the question wasn't worded particularly well...
anyway, get the book! how to build a sportscar for £250, or how to build a sportscar on a budget by chris gibbs. they'll tell you everything you
need to know!
welcome to the site

why round tube? there are advantages as well as disadvantages (more complex to join them) of using round tube.
not aware of where you can find such plans; most I've seen are designed from scratch.

Have a look on here. They are for square tube but the measurements will be same although they are for a
wider chassis than the book. Put your location in your profile and you may get more local replies.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Pipe thickness is done in schedule starting at sch5 going all the way up to sch 160 and higher. you'd be better off using tube for the thinner
thicknesses (steel stockist call it circular hollow) not a A106 pipe.

Indeed they do use the circular hollow section terminology but that is for relatively large and thicker walled, structural material...for our purposes
cold drawn seamless and (in many/most cases) ERW, round tubing is the stuff we need.

Water/gas/hydraulic tubing is not structural, it is soft to aid bending on site, not recommended for a chassis.

beat me to it, I was about to say that the pipe steel has a very high lead content to make it malleable and easy to cut threads - totally useless in
anything structural
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

It may be necessary to translate the UK-standards to EU-standards. I will look after my book...FE-360...St 37-2
Please feel free to correct my bad English, i'm still learning. Your Dutch is awfull! :-)
