Middy with its clothes off.

This looks interesting, a new shape yet some how classic to me.

Check out the frame on the table in the background of one of the shots.

The "chassis" is from the Gelmar Arbitrage GT, reclothed - My biggest concern is that it spells an end to the Arbitrage itself which is IMO one of the best looking designs out there.

looks a bit exposed, not much chassis protection for it's driver and passenger

Its a carbon/kevlar composite semi monocoque with collapsible fore section and subframe rear section. Given the choice of that or a few bent steel tubes around me, I know which I'd prefer...

Delinquent,
the design in your avatar, looks exellent, also quite similar to the Arbitrage. Have you got any more pics/details of your build, would be very interested to see it!
Cheers,
Toby

Cheers Toby,

The similarity has been pointed out before - A friend saw mine, commented on how similar it was to the Arbitrage and led me to their website. I nearly scrapped my project in favour of buying the Arbitrage but it doesn't have one thing I want and have included in my design - 3 seats.

Unfortunately mine is on hold at the moment due to workshop "issues" but rest assured once those are solved I'll be pressing on. In the meantime a pic showing a bit more of the CAD work.
