I don't know what the car is but the rear uprights look to be Lotus to me. Here is a pic of some casting I was going to purchase a while back.

Tom,
I've been working around the house and letting the car slide. I may have to take the molds out of storage and store them at home. I waiting to see what happens with GM. You still have the same...

Sorry to hear about that Tom. At least you still have your own shop and get by. Are you still in touch with Graham with the Swift. (Nissan GTP engine block guy)

Paul,
That's entirely up to you. If does not build a car he does buy parts or services.
Dave

Mads,
I have no problem with what you are doing , I commend you for it. It takes a certain type of person to build a car from scratch . I just hope you build a safe car. If you are not sure what you...

Rob,
The car I am building is a replica road car and will be labled as such. There were only 23 coupes built and 1 spyder. Many converted to B19. Chevron Racing in the UK is still building cars...

Rob,

I just did a Chevron B16 spaceframe from scratch ,the drawings I had were out and are doing all new ones. Derek Bennett built from his head and had them drawn up later so they were not...

I'm sure they are around Grant I find period engine's BDA's, FVC's ,M10's/12's are drawing big money. The 420R on racecars.com is current. the Cosworth Vega engine never overcame the overheating...

Grant,
I don't think he has that kind of money. There is one on www.Racecars.com for about $45,000.00 US It might be an older listing. He would them need a FT 200 to mate it to.
Dave

I think you would be better off using the head off a 2.3 Quad Four HO and try to mate it to a Pinto Block. New castings are available. That head was also developed by Cosworth and probably more...
