MK Panels on a 'book' chassis
Hi
this has probably been covered before (sorry if it has), but i'm building a 'book' chassis. i might be able to get hold of mk side
and rear panels, and was just wondering does anyone know if they will fit ok or if they willneed modifying
cheers

I think the MK indy chassis is an inch or two higher from the scuttle to the front so the side panels will be different . I might be wrong there but
if you take a look for your self on some mk indy pics you should notice this. Im not sure about the rear panel though !

I don't think it is an inch too wide, an Indy is the same width as a book chassis (ie 42" .
It is an inch too deep, but a suitable bracket is simple enough to fabricate.
The sides, too are an inch too deep, plus they slope from scuttle backwards - pain to put right.
A sheet of ally is better for a side panel.

thanks for the input guys
i think i might look at buying a new set of panels, rather than try and make mk ones fit
thanks again
