Hi Chris, well mate the bug has bitten again and i'm building another WSC LMP car as in Avatar, albeit with a few modifications [Fran sugestions] and have sourced an ex HSV LS1, and the gearbox is coming from Melbourne
have almost finnished the chassis, just the final welding [want a job] 186 fish mouth joints, oh what fun

a pic of progress to date

a pic of just the front section with Frans sugestions clearly showing, thanks mate, hopefully will add the stiffness to the cockpit that he said it will.

i will get in touch on Mon
cheers John

Hi John ,
ive just purchased a chassis off Andrew Stanton in christchurch also using a LS1 and G50 .Interested in how yours is going, would like to bounce a few things off you as we have a very similar build.
