try luego sports cars??
click on the pretty car at the top of the page.
MK engineering appear to have a good rep. don't know if they do just a frame (guess: yes) contact details anyone?
Search on ebay.
lolocost do them quite cheaply (apparently).
Cheers...

In the interests of maintaining an even-handed viewpoint  , you can also get spaceframes from MK and ST.
All 3 sources are of high quality - which one you choose is a matter of price, availability, convenience and the quality of customer support.
David
Important note: this is not a dig at Luego - I admire their opportunistic sales technique...

Just for info..MK don't manufacture the Locost Chassis any more, only the MK Indy (single donor)
I have seen a Luego Chassis close up. Very good build quality and very nicely finished (made me sick cause I'm building my own)
Good luck

John,
At least you are building your own, and its looking good
Mark
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

all the bought chassis look great that I have seen cos they are made by professionals with proper workshops.
I felt the same as you, cos im in a crappy garage with little equipment. Still, what I have is up to the job even tho ist not a work or art like an
MK.

Whatever you do, DON'T buy a Lolocost one unless you want to spend a lot of time correcting things...I know, I was that soldier .

Thanks...
I'm glad I took the decision to build it...
I would recommend it to anyone thinking of starting off, but, only if they have the patience.
The guy with the luego one had everything in boxes, ready to bolt on. But his build wasn't problem free either.
