hi,not started my build yet.but i was thinking has anyboby fitted a fury body or similar to a book chassis?
Can't help with the body but welcome to the site. Where abouts in Cambridge are you? there are a few builders in the area who meet up occasionaly
Andy
Ive got a phoenix rear bodywork and two side pods that need a bit of work and a new home. You can buy a bonnet from Stuart Taylor or Cyana Sports Cars
to fit these bits. I doubt it will fit a standard Locost chassie as the phoenix fury and striker are smaller in length. They should be the same width
as the Locost Phoenix and co are all able to use Escort axles and steering racks.

the answers no
very tight budget,hence book chassis.
i live in linton
Fury/Phoenix/Striker etc all smaller than a locost - so no.
Also the same as what zilspeed said!

Also- Fisher are being sold at the moment.... In fact, they might just be moving to the Fenland near you.... all depends upon finalised deals so its
top secret
Fury is IIRC based upon the Striker chassis which I can confirm is bloody small (can't even sit in the passenger seat of my bro's green
froggy Kwak Striker with an empty footwell let alone with the pedals in the way)... Fury bodywork on a locost chassis seems a strange way to go about
things- I'd stick with the Fury chassis!!!
Just down the road in Great Shelford.
Fury chassis is a bit different its the Phoenix that is essentially a striker chassis. All three actually have significantly shorter footwells on the
passenger side as Jeremy Phillips wanted to get the engine as far back as possible and over to the LHS.

when and where are you meeting next?
Carleldar - you have UTU (and to your aol e-mail too)
Will let you know
The Stylus also shares this chassis, though it has got some modifications through the years, originally it was also a striker chassis.

AFAIK the Stylus chassis is a different design to the Striker (though it might share dimensions). I remember this being commented on a lot at the
launch.

Just to continue the Cambridge get togethers theme... There is also the cam7 email list on www.se7ens.net. We tend to meet every Thursday evening in
the Railway tavern in Great Shelford.
If anybody comes along it should be clear who we are...
