Boot Box
As i was unable to work on the car today, I was pondering on aking a boot box (as i will have to cover that area for IVA)
Just wonder does a GRP boot box from other brands fix the original locost chassis?

Don't know the reply for your question, but would like to remind you that you can do your own.
An example.
There was another example I liked more, from a member that also placed a glove box behind the seat, but can't find the pic links... That one was
made out of wood.
Best regards,

the grp boot boxes tend to lose a lot of potential space, I would advise you make your own and utilise as much space as you can.
Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

Thank you! That was my first effort... second version here
I also did a glove box behind the seat - see here - not sure if that is the one
you meant?

Thank you, Humbug! It was your second version the one I was looking for! The tetris-like shape of the second box provided a lot more space. Since
I'm going to build an Aries (same chassis as yours), I'll be drawing a lot of inspiration from your work. Congratulations on it!
