Bodywork sizes
MikeR - 17/10/05 at 07:21 PM

Think i've finally decided on my bodywork. I want something that will fit my locost chassis and not dwarf it. Having had a good look at the MK stuff it looks about the same size as Caterham / Stuart Taylor

Could some one tell me ....
the height at the centre of the car of the nose and scuttle,
how high the rear GRP panel is - ie is it 1" taller than the standard book rear
if MK do 'narrow' rear arches for a live axle car

Cheers guys, know i should have asked them at donnington but had other things on my mind.

MK and Mac1 are both 1" taller in the side.
The scuttle will fit though.
The ST sides, scuttle, nose and bonnet will fit straight on, as will the ST rear arches.

thats what i thought - and what it looked like. I've got some measurements from a stuart taylor, just want to compare them to MK to make sure i'm right.

Without having the two side by side, measurements are the only way i'm going to figure this one out.

Also, does the extra inch go round to the rear section?
