I've been building a Locost. I learned a lot from this forum. Thought I'd share mine. I guess I could just go front to back. Honda Del Sol three-core radiator. Mustang II uprights/brakes/rack. QA1 coilovers. Speedway headlights. Zetec motor. ZX9R carbs. Megajolt ignition. Rams head, with a ZZperformance resonator. Home-made plate adaptor to a T5 WC transmission. GM axle, 3:73 gears with their sorta locker and rear discs from a Jimmy. Camaro style rally wheels. 1950 Pontiac-style LED brakelights. Brake bias adjustor. Inside - Wilwood clutch and brake pedal assembly. Speedway GPS speedo. Speedway tach/gauges. Pro 5.0 short shifter. Johnny Law heater. Speedway collapsible column. Just registered, working on sorting (three mufflers before a winner, several string-line alignments, etc.). Interior, spare-tire holder, and many other things still need to be figured out.

Re: Zetec Locost
Great. I'm glad to see your completed Locost.
Did you have a build log? If so, I missed it.
Cheers,

Damn! That front slip angle is way too large and the Ackerman is just a muddle.

Re: Zetec Locost
Well, here's how it ended up; I sold it after (earlier this year, I think, or maybe late last year) this for another project (1932 Ford Roadster). I think something is wrong with me; the Lotus ran and drove so well. So much life going by building cars ha
