MarkMark, This cell is for a Manxter. If someone is interested in having a cell made they can contact me. I only had a breif discussion with the fabricating company about making more. But since the design is in CAD and on file, more are just a phone call away. That is about as best as I can respond ...

Jim ,if you look in the background in this picture you can see the fullscale mock-up that I had made. The dimensions were taken from it. On top of the mock-up you can just make out a triangular piece. That is/was a hood clearence gauge. Very cool that you guys are going for the pods. Olli http://i34...

Saturday I will take the body and the roof over to Tijuana Kustoms. Tom will be making some side panels and covering the roof. I will also be getting one...

Mr Towd, That molded carpet is beautiful but that kit wouldn't fit a Manxter as we do not use a shortened pan. I wonder if one were to ask for a carpet that is 14"(is that right?) longer if it would fit? Olli

Tom, Those are great ideas but my original rear script stainless cross piece was cut and used for my other bumper cage. So, I will be starting from scratch. I have an idea for a new cross piece....it will be a month or so before I get to it though. Olli

There are a lot of choices out there. I personally like the newer style micro-fuse sized panels. They are very small and have a cover. Size is something worth considering. Personally, I am in a unique stuation with wiring needs. The wiring harness that came with my Subaru engine is actually built to...

I actually made a template of the lower "stub mount" that changes the location of the bumper tube. So when you need them I can make them. My lower mount will position the lower tube further outboard. The benefits to this are; it allows you to use your existing bumper tubes, clears the Subi...
