Bulk Buy - BODYWORK!

[Ben_Copeland]

THIS IS NOW FINISHED


Ive done a few bulk buys and words got around about it, i get asked every now and then for something specific. Well heres another possible one.

While ordering my bodywork from equinox i've persuaded Dave to give me the chance of a bulk buy.

5 sets of bodywork.

Deal is now finished.

http://www.equinoxproducts.co.uk/shop/viewitem.php?productid=168 for 10 piece kit details.

Choice of nosecones and bonnet, no extra cost. So you dont need to add £15 for the scooped bonnet.

If you private message me for further details and orders, then i can pass it onto Dave.

I'm number 1 so theres only 4 more needed.

The quality of the bodywork is brilliant and well worth the money


UPDATE : Daves extended the vat off to other parts like dash, seats, aeroscreen, boot panel and box if bought with 10 piece.

im interested. how does the rear tub fit onto the chassis? does it need the book spec rear pannel framework or not? mine is a mx5 based build.

X 2 please but that would have to include some over sized rear arches to cover slightly wider rubber.

Are equinox going to do seats as well?

It's designed to fit over the book chassis. So can fit over the curved top tubes, but doesn't need them there.

As long as its got something to attach too at the back to support it. It'll be fine

Your in luck he's got some 11 inch wide arches that I've ordered too.

[Ben_Copeland]

Yes chap he does seats. Even wide ones too. Think they are £130 with bonded base for fittings.

[DRCorsa]

I hope they are of better quality than fabbyglass crackers.

[Ben_Copeland]

Yes he wouldn't let anything substandard out the door! They'll be high quality like the bodywork :)

[voucht]

Price sounds good, and I would be interested if I was at that stage of my build, but I'll have to wait.

Question Ben: could Equinox communicate the dimensions of their body elements, especially the nose/bonnet/scuttle. I've been told the bonnet is quite high and a 2.0i could fit under, but I want to make sure. I hope I can make the first engine fitting trials newt month, so I will know how much room I need, and having the dimensions would help me to decide Equinox or another bodywork.

Thank you.

[Ben_Copeland]

I've just been asked by someone else so have your answer.


Internal Heights at the back it's 264mm at the front it's 203mm I would allow another 4mm for the thickness of fiberglass on the side panels on top of the metal rail.

[voucht]

Excellent Ben, thank you so much. I check if it is OK as soon as the engine is in the car :)

Theres a large vent bonnet on its way which would give a little more space too :D

[jps]

I'm certainly interested in a bulk buy for bodywork - when do you need firm yes/no by?

[Ben_Copeland]

As soon as really, but i have a already past on a few to Dave, so will be good to get another couple sets ordered if possible this week.

What sort of time frame are you thinking?

Hmm - agonising. I am nowhere near fitting bodywork - but seems like a good deal!!! I thought about it and I'll have to pass, I am not sure where I'd store the panels at the moment and I think i'll be at least 6 months (and lots of moving stuff round in the garage) before I am anywhere near fitting any bodywork... Don't want to buy it at a bargain price then end up damaging it in the next few months whilst it's piled up waiting to be fitted...

One for Stew: your Bodywork should be done by Monday I believe.

That bit gets cut out anyway, so not to worry :D ;) :p

[robo]

Any chance of a piccy for the seats???


bob

[Ben_Copeland]

Sent you a PM, finished pictures available end of the week hopefully but sent you a work in progress pic.

[stew]

just wanted to say looks stunning in the flesh ben!! one or two tiny scratches but will hopefully polish out just fine. cant really praise this kit enough, equinox does a great job indeed, looks spot on in every way. just need to get my finger out and get on with the rest of the car now!!! haha

[Ben_Copeland]

Excellent. Hope it all goes together smoothly. You'll notice all the little touches he's added to make it all come together nicely, like putting a curve on the side panels at the front to match the nose come etc.

I relayed your message and he says if there's any issues just let us know and he'll sort it.

[MarkB]

Ummm all look the same don't they.......:D

[robo]

They might all look the same but the quality varies a great deal. With a bit of luck I might get to see some of the equinox stuff next week. Seeing is believing:)

Bob

[Ben_Copeland]

It is top quality kit should have mine shortly and I shall be filling a thread with pictures :)

[alga]

Bob

Did you get to see a set?

[robo]

No I am trying to collect some bits I bought on the bay of thieves which is close to dave but am having trouble nailing the guy to the floor. I think the stuff went to cheap and he would sooner i gave up [ not gonna happen:) ]
So I am hopeing to get down there next week and will take a deposit with me or is that to be done through you:confused:

Bob

[Ben_Copeland]

Ok. No you can go straight to Dave you want, but he'll want full payment when you order.
