Haynes single seater at Stoneleigh

Afternoon all

Just wondered if anyone knew if there'd be any kind of appearance at Stoneleigh of Chris Gibbs single seater as the books out later this year and there hasn'rt been any new news for a while.

With a liberal smattering of grease and a huge shoehorn, then anythings possible!

Does anyone know if this has been designed to pass the IVA?

I see it has indicators, but no headlights.

I suppose it could be a side mounted bike engine, using a very short prop!!!

The rear picture looks like a normal diff shape.

I've been planning on building a single seater for the last year, going to wait for the book to come out now, i think.

Got most bits to complete the build!!! weirdly i even have a body!!!

With regards to IVA, Im pretty sure it'll be road legal.

can't access photo bucket in work, it's one of the many sites banned.

Sounds like there are some photos that I haven't seen before, anyone able to post them from a locost photo archive as I have no problem viewing them.

Cheers

I thought that for IVA the indicators (on sevens, anyway) would have to be on the wings? Anyway, if you wanted full lighting you could easily have headlights on a bar/bracket as per Locosts. With a bit of ingenuity you could probably make them detachable

But it's a single seater - you have to have no mates!!!





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1
