Body Work Suppliers - Similar to Radical SR8 / Ratpure??

Hello all,

I am design a design study / vehicle feasibility study for a new vehicle.
Current play is a mid engine vehicle using Subaru F4 or F6 engines.
I am wanting the body to look similar to the Radical SR8 / Rapture (both aesthetics and in dimensions) ie the open top lemans prototype.

So was wondering, is there any suppliers of similar body work to said vehicles?
I understand there is ARL, but my initial understanding is that is a smaller vehicle.

Thanks

Hi,
Equinox make the "Sports 2000" bodywork in (somehow) the same style.

Spire GTR would be worth a search. Not sure who the new owners are though, Totalkitcar site has a list of UK manufacturers with website links, worth trawling through.

There was also a three seat evo car using the a lobby hardware, DJC Storm, again no idea if it is in production still.

There is a proper Radical SR3 chassis for sale on eBay at the moment, will need a fair bit of engineering to get the engine to fit but a good base to start with.

ARL are the new owners of the old Spire GT-R.

I believe that they're are continuing to develop the product.
