GTS Tuning Challenger body

[rdodger]

Evening all

Has anyone tried fitting the Challenger body from GTS Tuning?

Would it fit on the Haynes MX5 Chassis?

Cheers

just search gts on any of the kit car forums. 99% of stuff ordered from them doesn't ever turn up and you wont see your money again. and for the rare occasion when something does turn up its usually a pile of crap

Crikey that looks like an on site emegency repair to some tractor implement. I certainly would not advertise a part as rough as that.

The "Original" Challenger had it's own chassis with a daft mono shock rear end and in board shocks and rockers up front. It was fitted with a Triumph 955i bike motor and tweaked with a laptop to tease some more go out of it. Chassis etc was ALL tig welded which at the time (8ish years ago) was unheard of in Kit Cars.Mono shock did some weirdy stuff when out on track too..... but heyo if you don't try these things life is boring!
The body will fit the early Ron Champion Locost chassis but will require some dicking about to make it fit.
It will also need to be painted as it never was a gel coat shiney finish.

Thanks for that.

I got a reply from Darren George.

Confirms it won't fit a Haynes chassis without a lot of mods.

Oh well. Will have to have the new Vodou body panels or maybe this.



I'm pretty sure I can get this to fit as the prototype is using a modded Mac#1 chassis, which I believe is similar dimensions as the Haynes?
