7 year itch

Well it's been 7 years that my kit has been off the road tucked away in the garage, I'm starting to feel the need to start another build. I think the fun for me was in the building and not so much the driving of the 7 type cars. I'm not sure who's still making these cars these day, I've lost touch a bit.
Anyone got any ideas on who & where to get another chassis package from?

I've just been looking at the Aries kit, I do like the fact it's book dimentions and seems very nicely priced

Just another voice supporting Aries and Steve. I had an excellent experience.

I bought my complete "kit in a box" from Steve back in 2010. I don't live in the UK and he was always helpful by email or phone. This was very important to me since I knew nothing about mechanics when I started. He had to explain me, when I visited the factory, how a lazy tong riveter worked...

I finished my car November last year and did a track day. Loads of fun.
