Thinking about building one, I'm a fabricator, so the metalwork isn't an issue, but looking at the supplier's links, most all of them are dead. What is everybody using for body work here in the USA? Thanks CR |

I bought a FG nosecone from Jack, he's sorta kinda a great guy. Caterham knock-off CF front fenders from kitcardirect.co.uk Used Caterham FG fenders for the rear from a forum member here. kitcardirect also sells replica rears. And welcome to the forum! |

Besides Jack, I have a couple of fiberglass cycle fender molds. For a rather large fee I can form fenders in aluminum. |

Funny, I haven't in a while, but I have had fairly large packages come from UK, like you said, shipped cheaper and faster than stuff I've shipped domestically.... The issue I'm sure, it's that there isn't much of a demand for these car parts... Nothing against anybody, just exploring options, before I jump into it.... BTW, if I decide to do it, I would do a BEC, probably a 1000cc plant... |

The original HaynesRoadster design nose and scuttle, our "steamroller" rear fenders, and wide clamshell front fenders if you're a fan of such. And windshield kits.My web site is in my sig line, go to <Locost parts> in the main menu |
