If the seat is secured to the floor, in the correct manner, then it should be OK. In the event of an accident it the mountings only hold the seat in place, not the occupant, this is done by the seat belts which are secured directly to the space frame part of the chassis. Given the number of...

My tornado chassis came with Four point harness mountings, as I requested them. I was having my chassis powder coated so it made sense to have them put in from the off. I would always speak to Andy before changing the chassis in anyway as Andy has been producing these chassis for a number of...

Hi, I'm in Wellingborough, Northants. I'll be getting all my parts from Andy, as I found when building my cobra replica, if you buy parts from different suppliers you need to add postage into the equation, which soon adds up, then you will probably find the part doesn't fit quite right and you...
