bodywork

hi smart51.
Bodywork will be sheet alloy screwed to the chassis via rivnuts at first and maybe a gf moulding when the car is proven.

Blakep82, the suspension unit fitted is not the one I will be using and will be shorter which will bring the angle more paralell to the wishbone.
all comments welcome . good or bad

I recognised the fuel tank from my build! When do you think you'll be ready for MSVA? At the rate I'm going I think It will be summer again before I'm ready.

My niece bought a Peugeot Satalis scooter from my friend's shop and I fetched it and filled it up with petrol as she was at work. It was only 250cc but went round the clock like nobody's business. I ride a 900 Hornet and was surprised how this little 250 motor performed and if your 400 is as good percentage wise you should enjoy the ride.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

was it the one with the supercharger? That might have something to do with it.
