White Rose Locost
Hi,
Long tim ereader, first time poster!
Just decided to take the plunge and have been offered a White Rose Vehicles chassis, as part of a bundle. The seller got bored just after he bought
it!
Anyone got any experience of these?
All posts read and gratefully received!!
Cheers

Welcome,
Not heard of White Rose Vehicles. Do you have any links to their stuff?

I remember many years ago dealing with them.. (10 years i think). They were into wooden lowcost kit cars made from mdf.
They still on the go?

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the
error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

White Rose went bust,have probably been raised from the dead,Lazarus fashion,by now. Locust owners would probably disagree but they are primitive to
say the least- dont expect to find a spaceframe chassis as it was a ladderframe with a ply tub bunged on top.
Hope this is of some use

If White Rose have re-incarnated (pun intended) and anyone knows where they are...I'd be interested as they used to do one of those old fashioned
vans based on a sierra.

Wasn't there some news clip about BWE Sportscars taking on some of the White Rose projects?
For LocUsts, check out www.locustenthusiastsclub.fsnet.co.uk.

Yeah, BWE have the Hornet- the Cortina based version of the Locust.
