After many playing hours with SF, I know the good and the bad of this car, so it is the time to put it on my wall and the time for the next project.
But how strong is my tube chassis ? Here is the answert.

Well, bashing around with a sledgehammer like that isn't something you do to your cars every day, so it looks like they are strong enough
Oohh, the Lotus 7, had almost forgot it! I hope for some updates of it soon

Hey Vass congrats on those cars - have you seen Elfin cars made in Melbourne?
I can imagine the white body put on the atom type chassis with polycarb wheel guards may resemble the yellow one pictured?...

Would you make a tank ?
I think that is a great, Mudgy's idea to make a Lotus7 body on a simple light chassis.
I'll try to find a sponsor.

Thanks Mudgy.
I like Efin's cars. If i didnt live in Greece, i could make one 1/1, like Lotus7, Atom, Elfins.Now 1/4 only [:@][:'(][&o]
I can imagine what you .... imagine and it is a great idea.

This body is for 1/3,5 !!!!????? scale. Bad choice.It is only for a the wall as a memory.
I'm thinking to make some 1/4 special bodies next time. I have an Aston Martin as the first ,the best ever to me.
Maybe i could have a Lotus7 as the second one, if there is interest from somebodies.
It is an expensive 'game' to me, making the mold, for 2-3 bodies.

Carbon? fiberglas? lexan ? I dont know yet.

first find out how many buyer s there are

Ι have start building a body (not lotus7 ) for a new project, so i'll know the final cost exactly.
If the cost per piece and the interest would 'expose' some buyers, then, i'll try it .

RE: Street Fighter , project.
After closer studies of the Super 7 and Locost cars the body and its shape isn't the worst to duplicate, seems like the "hardest" part is from the front axle to the front where the nose is.
