Sorry, missed this. So you are the manufacture of these kits? Are they the old Sammio ones?

I've often wondered if it was worth someone making a shell like that to fit over a generic se7en chassis, like the phoenix goes over a Striker. I know you couldn't accomodate everything from a Caterham to a Viento, but if the rear arches & the back of the cockpit were cut to suit - with a stiffening moulding bonded on after, I would've thought a lot would fit. Probably fit better that the Fury body fitted the Fury before FSC sorted it out.

I guess most folks want a se7en because it's instantly recognisable though.

I've spent a long time reading through the thread on 'Madaboutkitcars' and understand now.

Might widen your market to look at fitting the body to a locost type chassis as has been suggested.

Hi Fury1630, the guys who run the 750 Motorsport team ( forget there name ) were showing a car that fits a Locost chassis called the cyana, cost about £1100 at Stoneleigh last year.

Found this Link on the Locost site

Is this "the" Cyana (square tube chassis Phoenix-ish), or another one?

Ah, google is my friend:-

As Jeff said, i also think you should be looking at other chassis combinations, as there can not be too many triumphs knocking about now

What about Mx5's

Thats was probably spelt wrong, or had some grammer, that the "grammer police have to have a moan at
