what chassis for a T-70 street car ?

Hi....

I found an old T-70 body shell , probably made 20-25 years ago ,

Anyway what the best way to make it into a car for the street ?

is there a mid engine car I can use as a base like a Fiero ?

or is there anyone that makes a reasonable price chassis that uses parts I can buy at the parts store or junk yard ,

I know it may sound like a stupid question, but I do not want to spend years building a chassis and never get to drive it

Anyone have an extra frame when they upgraded to a better one ?

thanks for your help

its a spyder body.....

just not sure if I want to jump into this project or what ,

it would be great when its running , but the body was never installed so there are no inner panels etc,

So maybe too many hours to get it running.....

If I can get a rolling / running chassis , even if its not the correct T-70 style then that really cuts the work down.....

So just seeing right now whats out there....

Beaulieu,
Do you still have the T70 body?
