Hi guys, sorry that my first post here is a for sale one but a friend suggested this might be the place to advertise my current project

Im only looking to sell as i have been offered a completed car (if the other car sells i'll just keep this and continue to work on it)

The car; Space frame mini chassis, professionally built ex race car - based on formula ford suspension

Has new discs/pads and is extremly well built

It does still need some work (mainly finishing the steering colomn mount, replacing the front shocks as there too long and fabricating engine mounts to suit)

This is a very well made bit of kit and a great base for a project - my plan is to fit a bike engine and chain drive but i do have a audi trans axle if you wanted to fit a car engine (VW/audie 16v or 20vt etc)

Im looking for 1500 or near offer for the rolling chassis and will throw in the gearboc and some spare wheels - may consider splitting if enough interest

Please feel free to contact me for more informaition, more than happy to talk in detail about the car and the work that needs doing




Cheers

Mike

Cheers guys, there really is alot of car for the money - i think i priced it pretty well based on the spec/condition etc (again priced for a quick sale as i have been offered another car)

few more details on the spec below;

Chassis;
Professionally made space frame chassis - has previously been raced. NO CRASH DAMAGE. Has mounts for seat/harness etc
Car has had some modifications over time - none of which have effected the chassis strength
Only requires fabrication of steering column mount and for minor welding/tidying (realistically a weekends work for a good fabricator)
Requires engine mounts making/fitting to suit engine of your choice (does have mounts for the Audi trans axle)

Suspension;
Fully rose jointed double wishbones front and rear from a Formula Ford - fully adjustable camber and toe in (both inboard and outboard)
Light weight ally hubs and uprights from a Formula Ford
Front and rear adjustable anti roll bars
Spax adjustable coilovers (adjustable ride height and damping) - Note front dampers are a bit long for optimum ride height (costed up new dampers at approx 85 quid each - 2 required)

Brakes;
Vented front brakes with (I think) AP callipers (will double check) - Pads and discs are as new - Again from Formula Ford
Rear discs - Pads and discs are as new - Again from Formula Ford
Separate front and rear MC's with adjustable brake bias bar (front to rear)

Wheels;
Currently on 2 13x7 revo 4 spokes and 2 13x6 alley cats (Mini 4"/101.6pcd)
Can include set of 4x 13x10 revo 4 spokes (will throw these in free of charge at full asking price)

I have available (at extra cost) 15x8 compomotive minilight style rims with good tyres (4x100 pcd but fit fine - you can also use wobble bolts) and 15x6 5 spokes with toyo 888r's (again 4x100), tyres are worn but are ideal for track days

As said before this is a really great base for a project and although it needs some work it has potential to be an extremely completive car on track - in theory it could be put on the road with an IVA test (you would need to fit a handbrake system)

If any one is interested I have more pictures or can photo anything you might specifically want to see, im also more than happy to talk through the details of the car.


Many thanks


Mike
