My quest to design and build a mid-engined sports racer from scratch. It will comprise of many newly fabricated components along with repurposed parts from other vehicles such as the 2.5 Turbo engine from a Volvo 850 the running gear from Mazda Mx5 and the driveshafts from a sierra xr4x4. The body work is the only thing I have purchased and even that will be extensively modified and a complete front section made from a mould. Wish me luck.

I modified all 4 front wishbones to take inboard rose joints.  When I have decided the location of the inboard pickup point (by string computer) I can very quickly mock the front wishbones and have my matey Steve weld them up for me.
