Mr Towed- - - it started as a Ribble disaster, then a project for my "apprentice" but he fell in love and moved on
Due to a failed project it's now on order to go to France ASAP hence the rush.
Gaz- - I know you where involved some where but as I'v said nothing from Ribble surprises me anymore.
We have driven it around the yard and it fells fantastic.
This is no surprise as the chassis was designed to have a fiberglass body right from the start, although this body is a few hundreds kilos lighter.
I think this will end up being be on of the best road going Sammio's built, independent all round suspension, duel line braking with servo, modern Ford engine, 5 speed gearbox and a correctly designed chassis!!!it's a no brainer
In fact, if I was out to build a SAMMIO SPYDER for myself I would start with an SS1, the only change I would make is to find and use the Nissan turbo version!!!!
That said I'd hate to build another one .
