Measurement Needed
Hi Folks,
Need help from someone who has the nose cone and rear tub fitted, what i need is the overall lenght of the car. My build is currently 3+ miles from home and i'm going to move it to my garage at home. But i need re-arrange my garage so i can fit the roadster and my day to day work tools in the garage. Terry Last edited by tkpm : 30th March 2011 at 08:24 PM. Reason: grammer

You have the height of the chassis from the bottom edge of the lower rails to the top of the upper rails = 355mm,
the top of the bonnet is 230mm above the upper rails at the scuttle end & if my memory doesn,t fail me 171mm above the upper rails at the nose cone so you have 585mm from base rail to top of bonnet at scuttle end & 526mm from the base rail to top of bonnet at the nose cone end . depends which bonnet you fit, as the new Saturn bonnet gives greater clearance in its larger bonnet bulge. hope that helps. cheers andy
