I'll sponsor you for an orange club biscuit to have with your cup of tea that you will have to console you after the lack of donations!





Just enjoying one with me tea now, very nice it is too!

What a kick in the teeth. I was just getting excited and thinking what engine choice and what colour. If things go well with this I was looking to place my order by the end of next week.

Orange club Biscuit anyone? or are there some more benevolent members out there? If you donate I'll even take you out for a ride in it

i have some odd nuts and washers you can have to help with the build..

I'll take care of car set-up, test driving and 3-4 track sessions to help make sure it's bedded in and ready for you


On a serious note, I have often wondered about a LocostBuilders project to build a car entirely from donated funds, parts, materials and labour. The end result could then be sold to raise a charitable donation either back to LCB or a voted for charity.

I've got a GX160 Honda motor out of a go kart. You'll need to make a custom bellhousing to get it onto your gearbox though.

Sounds like a good cause - count me in. U2U me your bank details, including PIN number and security number and I'll transfer you a couple of K to be getting on with.

Me too, I'm waiting for 10 million from a guy in Nigeria, send me your details and a small handling fee of 2 grand and you can have 1mill of it.

As much as I liked my Striker and owned it for 6 years I couldn't quite like the Fulcrum enough to fit the body to my chassis. So I sold it eventually and moved on. Just a bit too bluff at the the front and featureless on top for my taste. Does look better in the flesh though.

So did you actually have the Fulcrum body but didnt fit it? How much did it sell for? Can you buy a striker and fit the fulcrum body and how much is involved?

Is this getting to real when it started off a joke?

Why am I asking myself all these questions?

I don't know? Why?

Because you're getting a bit like Scootz (but without the selling stuff on bit). Perhaps more of a serial collector rather than a buyer then seller?

I'll have to change my ways and stop being reckless. I just love owning and driving them.

No I didn't get as close as buying a body. Yes I belive you can retro fit the body to Striker chassis. My chassis was an early type with the space frame dash and so would require more chopping compared to the later GRP only dash chassis.

RAW would have to condirm this but I think the work mostly involves adding out riggers and a frame for the flip clam at the front of the chassis.
