Does anyone make a Formula Junior replica?

After seeing some of these pretty things upclose at Mallory last weekend, i wondered if there was a kit you could build you own??

How pretty is this???!!!

formula v looks very close and would be a cheap option

You've not seen the price yet then...

(I could be wrong on that statement, but last time I looked they were a few quid!)

£16k, not cheap, and irrelevant as i'm not going to build one, just interested

I'd not seen the haynes single seater!! Now maybe i would be tempted, lol!

Don't know if this has been out out for sale and if you can get in kit or only turn-key, but it may fit your liking...

Ahh the F1-67 beautiful to behold
However at approx £45,000ish even if I raid both kids piggy banks, sell the Mrs, and walk the docks of an evening in high heels it's way outta my reach :-(

However a locost version of a Formula Junior should be achievable...thinking cap on.

Yes theres the Haynes single seater but the book still ain't out and I ain't sure I wanna wait any longer before starting something. And if I don't start something/anything soon the Mrs will grab the space I've put to one side and do something terrible like use it for flower arranging or card making or handbag knitting or or ARRGGGGG!!!!

The downward curve to the top of the nose in the first pic is a huge improvement aesthetically over the straight run of the Tiger & F1

I too would like to see the chassis chris has come up with and rough prices for the bodywork, getting to the stage now were I need to start another project or I'm likely to lose all motivation towards the single seater, must admit that f/glass escort body shell is starting to look tops.
