GTRene - where did you get that radiator? Looks like an alloy version of the stock unit? was it custom made? or a part from another car.
I would love one like that for my Vixen 2500 (if it did not cost that much).

part 2 of 3 with CLM-99H something special is coming back to live again.
and the next picture is also the same car, I love that picture, looks brutal and used for driving-fun.
I am crazy about this car! I am also chuckling about what can pass for "rollover protection." It's too bad, that the patinated paint finish wasn't retained (unless it was, and I'm mistaken) and I dislike the paint finish, on the wheels. They look as though the proper finish, if Dow 7 wasn't used, would have been raw, as cast. and the next picture is also the same car, I love that picture, looks brutal and used for driving-fun.
Best,

how can you see I can't remember such things, also some vixen and or Tuscan or some Grantura are hard to recognize for me mostly from the outside.
those have all the same wheelbase, but what chassis are the same and what chassis is the best/strongest, and can you use some for another type with the same wheelbase?

The chassis has plenty of square tubes. Were Tuscans ever made on the M chassis or is this car an M with a Vixen/Tuscan body? Either way, it's a stunner in my opinion. those have all the same wheelbase, but what chassis are the same and what chassis is the best/strongest, and can you use some for another type with the same wheelbase?
