Don't affect or bother me anymore so I will say it.....sounds like the same geeza who was trying to make carbon fibre stuff but it turned out to be expensive crap......:D

I have been doing some design work while getting over my operation and I have come up with summat that every car freak has missed in the last 100 years.

On a lighter note this thread has provided an interesting read!
We shoudln't assume we all know the budgets and ethos behind everyones builds, some people may want to create something from scratch just for the satisfaction of doing it (hence a roadster over a westie), and to make it more special put some bling components on like willwoods and a nice pedal box. So there will be a market.

Saying that it will be a small market as most builders are probably tight fisted cheap skates like me, so I'll be going for the cheap option.

However if fabbys right its irrelevant anyway.

Basically there is/was a guy from Greece on Locostbuilders called Echidna who was offering carbon fibre wings etc for 7s. I seem to remember he was interested in pedal boxes or pedals too.

Anyway there were rumours that maybe the parts people ordered weren't quite what they were hoping for, or maybe they didn't get them, I really don't remember the details and I may be wronging the guy, readers will need to do their own research.

So naturally people are wondering if there is any link between him and the OP in this thread.
