Just thought id put up a few pics of my Onyx Mongoose build. Floor and side panels are fitted and the engine is now in and im sorting the loom out. rack and column are also fitted. I have all the suspension in a box out the way for now.

Sorry some of the pics arnt too good, done a 12 ohur night shift had 4 hours sleep then been in the gym for 2 hours so im a bit f**ked and cant hold the cam still lol.



















And a very locost pedal box (cost nothing to make)

I must be honest for some reason my brain keeps keep coming back to a bike engined mongoose as being a really good idea.....I suspect that must make me nearly as mad as you - AND unfortunately as I suspected a bike engine looks right at home in the chassis. So what are you doing for bodywork then?

Bodywork lol i have no idea but what ever i do it will be kept minimum to keep weight down. More than likley it will have the same as in my avater, i like how it looks, nothing flash just there to keep it road legal.

If you want madder Onyx are currently building a mongoose with a civic typre R engine in it. I saw it the other week whilst i was picking up my suspension.
