Group: Forum Members Posts: 688, Visits: 5.4K	andygtt (14/08/2013) Will this be put into production or is it a one off for someone? The first one will be for the client who gave me the initial brief. I retain the moulds and can produce them after that. The plan is to make it a modular design than can be retro fitted to most "7 style" chassis. So you can have the full kit with enclosed front arches or just the nose, bonnet and scuttle and run it with cycle wings etc. Warren Carbon Copies Ltd

Group: Forum Members Posts: 688, Visits: 5.4K	andygtt (13/08/2013) I'm also on the LCB forum.... Not been that active for a few years as had a few people say I wasn't a true locostbuilders builder lol. I'm andygtt on there :-) I'm known as andygtt as I have designed and part built my own car called... Gtt :-) ... It's a mid engined car on similar lines to the ultima (I built an ultima in 2001) Went to stoneleigh and to me it really looks like the kit industry is stalled, hopefully your design will actually get things mixed up. I know gaz who did a similar 7 concept that got displayed... It got me quite excited to point of me thinking about investing but he couldn't see it through and sold it :-) Must make sure we meet up next year at stoneleigh, always good to meet fellow carbon fetish fans in person :-) Hi, sounds interesting. I have followed your Noble build, nice work I was exhibiting at Stoneleigh this year and as you say things seemed a bit "stalled" Not sure if I will be allowed on LCB for much longer, I seem to have upset some of the purists with my design. You are welcome to come and have a look if you are ever in my neck of the woods. Warren Carbon Copies Ltd

I think like you mentioned before there doesn't seem to be much going on in the kit car industry at the moment, so I think they are pretty desperate to fill the pages with something.

Group: Forum Members Posts: 300, Visits: 2.2K	Hi Warren, I have recently joined the LCB forum as most or the answers to any of my kit car questions end up being answered there, I am davro on there. Trying the learn about composites currently as I am a complete newbie to composites. Have watched most of the easycomposites videos very informative and made me feel like I could do this. Sorry for hijacking your thread, I will get a thread going of my current and planned Dax Rush CF projects, Roof, Doors etc. Thanks Davro David Stevens YouTube: Comment \| Rate \| Subscribe Instagram Composite Projects Body Package for Dax Rush RC Car Touring Body 1/10 Scale
