Hi, does anybody have a Sylva Striker chassis, ideally a early 90's ford based one, build one in the early 90's so would like to build another one to the same spec, would consider a westfield or a caterham, yes a know not much chance of one of those, just thought i would ask, any info would be gratefully received, thank you.

You can buy a new one from Raw Engineering ???

May be worth also asking on the sylva chat on Google groups or the JPSC forum site.

I have a sylva stylus chassis if it's of any interest , car never got built kept dry stored by previous owner , bit dusty but otherwise as new. I brought it as a job lot to get the rover V8 engine that came with it.
Can post pics when I get home later.
Good luck with Your search.

Geoff.

I have several close contacts in the Kit Car Manufacturing fraternity if you PM me I will provide the numbers to call. At least two had Striker Chassis about when I saw them last week. The Striker is a well regarded unit.

Here you are..... might not come with all the bits in the photos , I might want the petrol tank etc for another project.





Looks a nice job to me but I would suggest that Geoff38 is running very close to advertising on PH which the mods will not have. Hence my PM to the OP because otherwise I would be advertising which I do not wish to do.

Hi Geoff, tried to email you but your address not working, i have looked every where and no body seems to be making that kit any more, so with no body i would not be able to finish it and the chassis is totally different to the striker, thank you for your help, Mark.

but the chassis is very close to the Fury which is still in production if you need to wrap it in something, I am sure this can be done. Or a Pheonix body from RAw may also fit.

hrmmm don't know why you couldn't email me ? maybe I've been cut off for advertising laugh

yes I recently missed out on a shell on ebay because someone else wanted it more than me.
As the other chap says I would expect the other bodies mentioned might fit with a bit of work , but no problem if it's not for You , just thought I would offer it as an option.

Cheers
G.

I was thinking of using it with this shell but the seating positon of the chassis is too far back. My head would be poking out the back window....
