Nice to see they've kept the chrome bumper on. Not sure what the Bugatti grills needed for but nice twist. Classic style ,modern aerodynamics. Low and wide

I thought Chris preferred his rat rods

Having just come back from a week long trip around Germany visiting more car museums than I care to mention I have fallen in love with this:

Wonder if Chris fancies branching out into kits to fit a Beetle chassis?

Scottie22 29th July 2014 20:48

I would like Chris to build me a robot that could do all the shitty fiddly jobs on my build. Come to think of it that would be most of it!

Mmmmmmmm perhaps not.............

Martin and Walker offer the Technic 904 GTS replica/homage/lookalikey/whatever in the uk -

Not cheap though...

Don't laugh. A 5 door lotus exige tribute. Love the flowing design and thin vertical lights and wide arches. I've been looking at it for a while . The Mrs couldn't moan then as it has five doors which would have poppers put in the rear doors so no door handles. Raised door panels. 16+17inch alloys lowered to match the exige. Only difference is i would have a ford fiesta grill l

zagmad 30th July 2014 20:43

Id have four sports seats. And a stripped out interior just four bucket seats . Steering wheel and dials.

I would like Chris to build himself a Birthday cake .

Happy Birthday you old tw@t !

zagmad 30th July 2014 21:12

How about a lotus elan mk1 tribute with small pop up lights

Thanks Mr Towed found that and another company in the US. They look stunning but are way out of my price range. I suppose by hard top MX250C looks a bit like this, albeit that the engine is in the wrong end.

I wonder if the Porsche could be made to fit on this

The prices seem to be dropping below £6K and they should handle ok

Paul D 5th November 2014 19:54

How about this Ferrari Monza replica on Ebay.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2012070203...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Maybe on a TVR 350 V8 wedge chassis?

I wonder if that porsche could be fitted to a boxster ?

What I'd really love is a jaguar XJ13 - maybe that could be fitted to a boxster with the mid engine layout?

I just purchased a complete set of molds for this body. Looks like it will be a fun winter if my health holds out. 2 heart attacks this year. :(

That's nice, where do you get a windscreen from, though?

Scottie22 6th November 2014 09:00

Jmc14,
keep taking the pills, I'm sure you'll be fine, good luck with your project!

Scottie

Mister Towed 6th November 2014 12:26

Very pretty car and I love those Cromodora alloys. Reminds me of the Ferrari P4.

Good luck with the health thing, hope all is well.

WorldClassAccident 6th November 2014 15:37

I wonder if you could use these guys to shorten the mould development.

Take in a model of the car you want to build, get them to knock out a polystyrene model and slap a mould off that.

The other thing you could do is scan a car and then modify the file to make the car fit your donor.

Wouldn't mind an SWB on top of that :-)

And take it easy JMC ;-)
