    I see you use auto welding clamps. I reckon they might just be the best invention since sliced bread!

      Yes if you want to get a nice 90’ then they work wonders

    This is incredibly impressive work. I have just restored a Mini and would like to build another one with a tubular spaceframe and plenty of horsepower. I think your frame design is great and would like to buy the plans for it as a template if that is possible.

      i much prefer front wheel drive in these as they are so light weight and the engine sits over the front wheels so it better to pull the back end round then have the weight in the back and not much weight over the steer wheels, you van make a rear engine one work iv just not had much development input in one
