Transaxles are a bugger. It's a sad situation when a brand new £7500 Ford GT unit starts looking like a good deal......

Re: RCR's Next car should be.....
While it is not top of my list of favourites, I sometimes wonder whatever happened to Jerry Wiegert's Vector project of years ago. Also, the Mercedes C111 gull wing with triple rotor Wankel looked really cool, and was a body Fran could copy and bond to one of his chassis. However, the Daimler Benz crowd may not take kindly to this.

Or.... how about becoming a distributor for this beauty....

This car looks fabulous from any angle - but no US distributor..

They apparently race them in the UK too!

Hmmm...... that sounds like an "opportunity"!???
Import the kits and offer a retro-fit to LHD for US comsumption?
Or just the body/trim and suspension bits and offer a US built chassis - maybe based off the Superlight??

The Honda/Acura V6 drivetrain is readily available and should make for some very exciting yet "economical" performance (even the 4 cylinder VTEC drivetrain would be sweeet). Then figure out a way to get them out the door for ~$25K minus drivetrain??

Re: RCR's Next car should be.....
Fran,your not thinking big! check out my new B-702 at www.Blastolene.com I can let you pull a mold! (sorry I do not know how to post photos) But supplying customers with 702 cu.in v-12's could be like ordering a zf from RBT.

PS. do you still want me to make some aluminum roofs for 40's? I now have time while I wait for a Trans for my 40.
