Hi Guys,

I am looking to replace the body shell of my 96 Chimaera with the new shape shell,

Are there any major challenges with doing this - are they interchangeable?

I would welcome any thoughts, Dave

RT Racing say they produce two chassis, one for early and one for late cars. Speak to Richard Thorpe for the correct advice.

I believe the chassis are slightly different because of the two different gearboxes used.

Rear mounting points are in a different position.

Thanks guys,

In relation to getting a new body shell, do you know if all the mounting/ bolting points all the same - relatively easy to fit a new shell on?
