Velocity chassis size
Hi!
Is the Velocity chassis size the same as the book chassis?
Would the bodywork made for locost/book chassis fit a Velocity?

As far as I know they are very nearly the same. I am fitting Velocity bodywork to a Stuart taylor (pretty much the book chassis) and everything seems
to fit apart from the rear panel, which will have to be modified slightly to fit.

I believe its th same size as Book,
However the bodywork is approx 2" taller to accomodate Pinto Engines.
However I am not 100% sure.
My Viento body definately would not fit
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

Thanks for the answers!
So the Velocity body (nose, shutle and bonnet) is higher than a locost body, but the chassis has the same dimensions?
Also, has there been a model named only "Velocity" or is "Velocity" and "Velocity XT" the same?
