I don't believe 3GE went bust, back in Feb I was enquiring why I couldn't order something off the web site
And I quote 'We have stopped production of Roadster parts, I have had a job offer that was too good to turn down, sadly it leaves me with little
spare time, so something had to give'
I have no other details.

No, 3GE didn't go "bust"  I moved on to other things, and seeing as there are only 24 hours in a day, it left little time to do
all the things for the Roadster as well.
It's not to say that I won't start doing parts again in the future, just not now.
As regards the single seater, watch this space, I have chatted with Chris recently so know what the score is.
Kind regards
John

Where the heck have I been and why haven't I heard about this until two years after the original post???
Looks GORGEOUS, I haven't started my 7 yet and now I'm questioning if I should just build the single seater..... You guys and your lust
worthy cars, you're making it difficult for me!

I'm not scared!!! I'm just marking my territory.

i doubt it ever will, open wheeled cars are not allowed on track days and it would be a difficult and impractcal car to use on the roads, so where
would you use it?
I would still buy the book if it ever came out just for the engineering
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

The only reason it wont come out will be the authors health. Its no more an open wheeled car than a Seven as it has wheel arches and will be road
legal.

Haynes took back their book advance from Andy H formerly of Saturn Sports Cars a year ago then went and took every thing to do with the chassis from
Nathan at NTS, I don't see any body in a rush to pick up a project that does not have a justifiable place in the market.

There was a couple of builders of "said car" on this site, years and years ago, never heard from them since
Its a good job a few of us built our locosts 10-14 years ago, as this site would never of happened
