Any help would be great,

looks like a tiger to me, the way the front of the chassis is, maybe an avon seeing as its irs and not using the sierra trailing arms!?

Ned.

Look like the Tiger AVON to me!

Only weird coilover brackets upper rear

dont think it is a tiger made chassis ned, fronts not like the book any way.


My guess, its home made to the tiger book with influance from Ron's book jmo

I think it does,

Only an early one.

Lower wihbone misses plate between ball-joint and bracket.
It uses the fiat 124 ball. Upper wishbone is the same.
At the rear i mis the diagonal stiffness
Also the brackets for the MK2 rack isn't the same.

Place your pic at the TIGER AVON part and let them argue.

Homemade Tiger Avon!!!!!!!!!!!



Carl

well whoever made it i guess we're agreed that it's a tiger avon of sorts

Definately a DIY Avon.

Pedal box, scuttle bar, upper belt mounts give it all away as a DIY.

Good luck to them - shocks are resting on the bump stops as well - typical Tiger dimension error!

Pat...

Looks similar to this one here.






Posted for amusement only, I am being ironic, I am not an idiot (discuss) and do not need correcting.

Also notice that the top rail dips down from the scuttle back torear wheel arches.
Locosts don't do that but Avons do, same as the caterham.

Is that a K-Series engine? If so the bellhousing is worth a fair bit, they are over £250 new.

its not a production avon chassis . its either different tiger chassis or one made to the book, i have early avon ( chassis number 17) and its not the same . cheers scott

the rear upper shock mounts look a smidge flimsy, could do with some triangulation

Have a look at item 280022280436 on ebay (sorry, can't do links.)
Looks like the same chassis (scuttle hoop and upper rear shock mounts etc.) Judging by the low price and description on the board attached to the chassis in one of the photos, I'd guess it is an original Avon Phoenix chassis as was, before Tiger developed it into the Tiger Avon chassis we know today.
