MX5 Donor Chassis Unveiled

[Talonmotorsport]

I've had some fun with this over the past week or so and has caused some heated discussion as to what should go where or even if it was needed at all. Here is the semi finished rear end made in steel with the diff fitted which goes straight in with every thing welded in place. This reworked design when used with the book spec rear tub will give a 42ltr fuel tank as standard and a large usable boot the whole width of the car.

Thanks for posting those up, I think that shows the amount of metal we have saved and the amount of space we have made. Bloomin' light too. My original design with the plates looks like child play now! So how soon are you going to have the thing finished?

Matt, lets have a game of hang man and see if you can guess what I need to finish the back end before the gallows is finished.

Our car club is going to build a car based on the MX5 so the chairman of the club has downloaded the plans from saturn sports cars as well as the vodou plans. First impressions are the saturn plans are lacking some very important measurements has anyone else had the same problem? The aim is to use the plans that make the most of what is available and so far the vodou plans are far more organised which leads us to ask the question..why is this forum such a closed shop?
Sorry if this annoys anyone as it's not the intention.

Thank you
Daz.
