Formula 27 info
Hi guys,
Just looking for a bit of info on my F27 as there is very little info available online.
Can anyone tell me what donor vehicle the basic components are from? such as bushes/ ball joints/ steering column/wheels etc?
Any help would be great.
I believe my F27 is the wide body version if that changes anything.
Cheers,
Liam

more or less correct - I would have expect rack to be escort rack.
.... oh and as ^^^^ said, they have been around for quite a while, from the first plan built chassis to production chassis, changing ownership several
times.
there was a club but has little activity and probably is defunct now.
