I'm looking for info about P4 replicas but my efforts are not turning out to be very successful. There's a P4 Replicas forum site but the links to try and register don't work and you can't get into the site if you're not registered.

I understand that Foreman Cars are selling their kit business so it looks as though I need to go the second hand route unless they are still selling kits whilst looking for a business buyer.

Does anyone know of any good websites for P4 replica owners or any other good sources of info or cars for sale?

I have an RCR70 chassis which is very similar to the RCRP4 chassis sitting in my workshop if you want to have a look.

Thanks, some useful info there.



Is the RCR product as good as the Foreman one? And what is headroom like on these cars?

Joe, is the T70 chassis the one you're punting with the T70 replica? If so, why are you selling that kit and is it complete? (I'm very fickle with my vehicle choices you see) hehe

I have only seen one of the Foreman P4 Can Am cars, it looked really nice, but I have not seen a bare chassis or suspension. To be honest it would be hard to compare the 2 due to the diffrences in the construction. There was a bit of an epic thread in the Ultima forum recently regarding the RCR chassis Vs the Ultima spaceframe, I think its each to there own.

I managed to do a deal for just the RCR rolling chassis as I already had a shed full of original bits and a coupe body. RCR's normally only sell complete Body Chassis kits.
What I have for sale is detailed at www.T70s.co.uk including pictures etc, it also comes with engine and gearbox.

I am only selling as I have so many projects on the go and my own car I am currently working on.

As an aside I think the RCRP4 would be an awsome car especially as I know where there is a Ferrari 400 stored up which would make an awsome donor.

Well bare in mind where the Ultima came from . . . . Lee Noble. The Noble P4 chassis is very similar to the Ultima chassis.
