Fibreglass back panel

Does anyone have one going spare, or does anyone know who makes them to fit a Book chassis? I'm looking really for black, but I'd consider any colour.
I used to see loads on ebay, but now I need one, I haven't seen one for months.

I have a link to his site (here). Unfortunatly, he only seems to do stuff for the Haynes Roadster these days - IIRC, the roadster is wider than a locost, so a back panel for that wouldn't fit

i didn,t realise that, it still maybe worth a call to him, as on his website yes its all Roadster bodywork but worth asking if he can do a tub for you.
and no i.m not on commission its just that i have his bodywork & its very good quality.
cheers

the tubs that where on ebay didn't 100% fit a locost chassis. I believe it was fractionally smaller so you'd have to remove the steel hoop at the top to fit it.

The MK Indy one fits the book chassis fine. It is an inch deeper, but once it's on you can't tell

Because kits are for girls!!

Thanks for the replies.
The AGM prices look very reasonable too.
I can't find the prices for MK on their site - I'll give them a ring.

Thanks again,
Bill
