Haynes Roadster or Locost Seven?

[david_hornet27]

I am a little confused as to what my car is! lol

It is a Seven style car with Cortina uprights and brakes at the front with a Sierra steering rack. At the back I have a Sierra diff, driveshafts (independent suspension) and brake drums. The donor car was obviously a Sierra as the speedo, steering column controls and handbrake are from that car. When I bought the car it also had the donor engine (1.8 Pinto) which I have now swapped out and replaced with a 2.0 Pinto.

It is listed as a Locost Seven on the log book. I thought the Locosts were built using Escort live rear axle and donor parts with Cortina parts at the front. It also seems a bit wider than other Locost Sevens I have seen, I guess because of the Sierra running gear at the back.

So what do I have? A Locost Seven or a Haynes Roadster. Or even a Haynes Seven or a Locost Roadster??


Thanks...
