Hello, new member seeking info on chassis condition

[alexk4483]

Hello Noble Gents,

I am a new member to the Noble forum having spent the last 10 years playing with MNR Vortx/Locost/Cappuccino
I have occasionally visited the forum as a lurker, gathering information about Noble problems/various upgrades etc.

I am seeking as much information on the Noble as I can find before I jump in and purchase my dream car (an M12 GTO 3R)
I have read every review I can find online and the recent book on Noble Cars by Brookland Books.

So I am seeking the following info, please point me in the right direction if its all covered in previous posts.
Information on the rust issues that seem to afflict the chassis.
Given the age and fact that many cars have been daily drivers, is the rust easy to find or do I need to take the undertray/diffusers off?
Any areas that require particular attention?
Is mileage a factor in chassis rust or rather where the car was stored? (or was rust a factory fitted option as the chassis seem to be powdercoated only and not galvanised?)

Are replacement chassis sections available ?
If so where from? (Jetstream Motorsports?)

I am also seeking
Photos of the chassis, stripped bare if possible.
Photos of the front and rear suspension design, and uprights.

Many more questions to come.

Cheers,

Alex
