Spot on - with 1000 bhp on tap, Alex won't have a boot, just a 1000 litre fuel tank. Hope he remembers to fit rear suspension off a truck, or he might find his rear a little low........

It uses a T350/Sag glass that hinges open

That's the third time I've told you Peter, memory issues in you're old age?

Listen, I can't keep everything in my head. When I read a newspaper a little other info creeps out the back door

Forgotten more than I know type speech?

[Malcster]

That looks pretty awesome!
I'd love one of those!

Can we get a pic of it sitting on the car?

Alex - I know what you're planning! Don't even think about it

[Graham]

Not the greatest pic, but the only one I have to hand. One of the roof's on Iain Jones race car body.




AS the original design was for a race car the roof line is a little higher to allow for the correct roll cage height and a bit of room for your helmet

[Chilliman]

I WILL NOT respond to the last line in the post above. Nope, no comment to add. Nothing.

[QBee]

Never realised before that even that small a gravel trap could rip the wheels off a Chimaera. I will need to be more careful next week at Snetterton.

[Engineer1949]

Stupid question but how do you access the boot.

Third or forth post above says a T350/Sagaris hinged window.

[neal1980]

Not a fan think it looks cack....maybe alot better painted look forward to seeing it done.

[QBee]

If I had wanted a hard top Chimaera I would have bought a Cerbera....sorry, Alex. But it's a free country, and that's something I treasure. Go for what pleases you.

[neal1980]

Can anyone photoshop the pic so we can see what it would look like painted??
