skelatol / caged designs

Seen a few people from here doing the above and wondered if anyone has produced plans for one yet.
After doing a book chassis locost and only ever played with front engine rear wheel drive of 1970 /1980s ilk, quite fancy having a go at car engine rear engine rear wheel drive, but do not want to pay normal production prices (MEV ). Following James Warner car in the present CKC mag has got the juices going again.
Round tube of course.
Richard.

Why not read about it here? He's known as cloudy and has the longest running thread

I thought James was going to make his designs available for others? Don't know where I got that idea from. From memory SVA/IVA presented a few challenges, but was doable.

Perhaps the 3 GSXR1100wp engines that I now have will start accumulating value!!! I do remember him being disappointed with the R1's (just putting that out there for entertainments value).

Still hoping to find a manufacturing partner to make these available, but haven't managed to make much headway yet

Hopefully the feature in the next CKC will show enough potential for someone to be interested...
