How about a thread with all the different body shapes of kit cars.

Short description of specs and where you can buy one and 4 or 5 pics. Front, side, back, engine compartment and interior.

I am looking for a kit that represents something like a Chevron B16 Spyder and it would have been nice to go to one thread and look at what is avaiable.

Therer used to be an annual publication, by one of the kit magazines that was a nice catalogue of pretty well everything available.


In fact a quck search and .......

There is also this one, US site but has a number of the main UK suppliers in there -

An there is the total kit car x-ref lists based on donor or style -

As for Chevron B16 Spyder canam style car - have a look at the Autotune McLaren M1 style car, that may fit the bill - http://www.autotuneuk.com/can-am-m1.html

Designed for a chevy v8 and porker gearbox but pretty sure an Audi V8 and FWD gearbox could be made to fit as a cheaper option.

A bit more down to earth is the front engine Quantum Napier/Pulsar (don't know who makes this currently) and the rear engine Spire GT (although more modern Radical type styling).
