Its having a crossflow engine in it - eventually.

It looked pretty much the same as it does now in the photos but had a lot of the welds were tacked.

I did make the obligatory brmm brmm noises and pretended there was a steering wheel there as well!!!

Great job, it's good to see another Locost underway. Even better with a Crossflow.

Has anyone told the original poster that there's an escaped prison inmate sitting in his car?

I'm just kidding, but around here, inmates do tend to wear brightly-colored jumpsuits!

It looks very nice, and I'm glad someone was able to cut you out of there. It looked like you were strapped in.
