looks like fun, although the exhaust going that route looks out of place?

Right.. The Pendleton Brooklands have side mounts. But.. here’s my version.



Underslung exhausts… For me they look better.

At the front end ..


Moto Guzzi 750 coupled to Citroen 2cv gearbox.
No exhaust balance pipe, don’t think there of any major value on such a low power engine… I could be wrong… Always a possibility to retro fit.

Your nose piece comes a fair bit further forward over the barrels than mine...

Your seats are a lot neater than mine... I must try harder.

How thick is the Ali used on the seats Carlo?

Is that the smaller (skirt) beading you've used?

Hi Niall.
The seats are 1.5mm, the edges are small profile extrusions, similar to the usual edgings.
Makes for a very ridged seat,



Seats are 1.5 “ foam type stuff with leather covering. The seats tilt forward to allow acess the the very limited storage.

Chees.

Much obliged, thanks Charlie!

I'm going to collect the engine cover from Robin this week all being well.... Will you be needing it too?

Also. I've sourced some cheap MSVA mirrors if you'd like to borrow them for the test?

Sorry to hear about your loss. No need to apologise for delays, life happens. I've been building mine for what feels like an eternity.

The mirrors are in a plastic housing and require a single M8 hole in the bodywork.

Off to collect the engine guard this evening.

Not seen one of these before - looks great! What motor is in it? Is a bike engine or something else?

Hi,
My kit car has a Fiat TJet 1.4 turbo petrol engine.
Here is more about it but this topic hasn't been updated since 2021:
