Daren't put any pics of my poorly built badly engineered thing on here, it'll be compared to this engineering master piece.

Brilliant bit of work Rosco - not that much different in build progress to mine really but I want to get mine on the road for 2016 kitcar show, fancy a race???

Awesome work, looking forward to seeing how your roll bar works out as that is something that is really playing on my mind

Yeah it is mine to be fair, I think I'm going to mount it on the outside i think and welded on, I've had a quick draw up of it, but I'm going to mock it up with plastic pipe while I'm sat in the car

Excellent tweeks to original Gibbs design.

What would it be like to syphon off all the excellent upgrades builders have made and put them into one roadster .

Hi Rosco,
As everyone here, I'm highly impressed by your build. I just love the pedal box, and I'm longing to see your roll bar.

I'd like to know what CAD software to you use, please?
