Nearly got it finished, just waiting for works front arms and some universals.

Not sure if there would be enough interest but this is the response I got back from fibre Lyte when I sent them a picture of the tub. I could follow up to see what the cost would be if there were 10+ buyers. Also I am not sure if they have the CAD but I can draw/ model something up from my 870c if needed.

the chassis looks familiar but I don't think that we still have the mould I'm afraid. The cost of making a new mould for a one off wouldn't be cost effective, but if you could get a group buy together (say around 10+ people) then we may be able to do something, still no guarantees, but if we've made one in the past (before my time I'm afraid) then we should be able to do something now.

With reference to your DXF file, was that a machining plan for the tub?

Fellow vintagists,

today i decided not to build the car with the tub chassis as a works 93 chassis showed up in my cove today. This means i will rather build it with a normal chassis and end up with a new built runner you will not hate me for :)

:shock: In consequence i think I will post the tub chassis in th BST area ! :shock:

Cheers everybody
