The IVA MSVA shouldn't really be a problem for a retro 30s design any much more than a contemporary modern design really. Look at Morgan's Life car and then there's the likes of The Avion too. OK so bonnet catches and exterior hand brakes plus the spinners on wire wheels might be a problem but then again...
Would love to see any ideas people have. There's some really inspirational designs pop up from lots of places. We've just had some space age ones for one of our cars which it looks like we're going to have a go at but we'll have just the same IVA points to get round as a 30s car
Pretty soon will be ready for a new project and would like to rework a Triking or a JZR chassis to a retro-modern design.Would love to see any ideas people have. There's some really inspirational designs pop up from lots of places. We've just had some space age ones for one of our cars which it looks like we're going to have a go at but we'll have just the same IVA points to get round as a 30s car
Just looking for the funds and a free chassis to start work with...

That's pretty sharp, I like it.
Much better (IMHO) than the exo thing.
A few comments (well you did expect them, didn't you?)
I think the front track is too wide, the lines cry out for the wheel edge to finish in line with the headlights (which are great, btw).
I hope there will be an option for doors and panels for the lower body sides.
I take it there will be the option for a luggage compartment over the engine?
You are going to need mudguards, windscreen wiper and indicators/rear lights in the rear sweep line for the UK. They won't wear lights hidden under the roof to that extent.
But generally, yeah, that's good.

You've hit all those area that we've been working on in the last few weeks and are related to screen, wipers, lights and other, but as you well know, it takes a lot of time to do things the right way, money and other...
.We consider this the pre-series prototype vehicle and the final version will look even better.
Working on the door design, but they will be very simple and will be a mix of cloth and plastic at this stage, but will be conisidering alternatives li polycarbonate in the future...
I like the chassis and design of the eco-exo and would like to create a similar concept next year, using our chassis but with very limited bodywork.

Can't say the seating position looks comfortable.
Knees bent way to much and steering wheel looks too far away.
The driver looks hunched over.
All those issues have already been taken care off, with the new steering wheel closer to your chest, it's slightly taller due to a modification in the new suspension design, set for normal road driving conditions, while this prototype had a racer look and not suited for speedbumps.....Knees bent way to much and steering wheel looks too far away.
The driver looks hunched over.
The final version will look even better....

Congratulations on such a professional job Italo. There's many people could learn a thing or two from you on how to run a project. You've managed to do what thousands of people on hear only dream about doing.
Well done!
And happy birthday by the way too.
Thank you....Well done!
And happy birthday by the way too.
I need to remind myself once in awhile that I'm getting old......
In reference to this project, I tried to get some real professionals to help us as I'm not good with graphics, logos and websites...
I was very lucky in finding a young and very talented enthusiastic graphic designer willing to help us with this project.
I will pass on to him your appreciation for the work done.
Cheers
Italo
