Project 2 by VassilisG -LOTUS 7
New project again.
My first project will be ready soon (I hope ) and this is the best time to look for the next one.
- on road car
- 1/3.5 (???) scale
- Lotus 7 look http://www.caterham.co.uk/assets/htm.../classic.html#
- tube chassis ,of course
- hand made and special parts ,only (... always)
-
-
-
-
-
Thinks for a few numbers of them , not only for me .
A 'toy' for big boys , not only for race and fun ,...... for your eyes only.
What do you think ?

Great work mate.....
I was actually going to build a full scale one but to get the engine passed through the transport department was going to be a bloody huge cost. This is a build i will be following closely............

Thanks guys ,
I try to tie up loose ends of project 1 so there aren't any upgrades ( other than steering hubs and arms ).

Awesome work dude, I'm in Agia Paraskevi, and would love to see it up close when finished if you can spare the time. 
Lately I've been thinking about making a scale Ariel Atom, maybe we could work together some day. Your chassis building skills would be a great benefit!

That thing looks fast already.
I'll be keeping an eye on this thread.
Great to see more homebuilds around here too!
So many seem to get started but never finished.

I need about a month to finish it.
Many projects never finished , because there are constructional problems. If they ask for it ( know how ) maybe someone can help.

Two days ago I had a bad time with my first project ( rhino is 'dead ' so I need a new one ) so I couldn't make an axion video but I work with my love Lotus 7 .
I made a diff . the smallest ever for me , and the brackets .It is ready to take place in the car.
I also made 4 absorbers and this is the story ,in pics.
