This is looking good, have you pulled the first moulds yet? Wish you all the luck its a good looking kit.

Our first full fiberglass panel set fitted to the demo car in gelcoat. Targa is being created and available in 2 weeks.

Looks really sporty, if was after a TVR style I would go for this...

WOW really really well done. Can't wait to see it painted. would love to see a debaged black with blacked out windows or storm trooper black and white.
This is such a great shape.

Agreed it looks great, seriouslly thinking about dumping my sammio and buying one o these. A couple of questions: I see on your Facebook page you say "doner ready to be chopped' how and what gets chopped? Is there any welding todo? What parts provided in the kit? Can't get you r webpage to load, when will it be ready and are there build instuctions ? Kit price/Deposit /delivery / ?

Thx Barry

Forgot one. Lights?

It´s really looking great. Hard to believe there is an MX5 somewhere under there. Keep up the good work.

It looks great in red! Do you have a kit list and price yet?

Thanks for your comments guys. The kit will be £4500 for a fill panel set including windows. The sill sections are completely removable from the car so you can get to the sills still for repairs in the future. Rear screen is an opening plexiglass screen so no boot lose. The front inner wings are cut back as well as the radiator panel but no cutting of the chassis rails or crossmember. The front will end up looking the same as a mk2 inside. The rear end you cut and flare the arches. Rear quarters the hole for the lights is enlarged to take the new lights. A panel will be included to re seal the boot area. Again no chassis rails are cut. Hope this helps.

Wayne it really is a good looking car that you have produced and I wish you all the luck selling kits but take a look at the prices from tribute automotive for there body conversion kits. Your price seems rather high

Thanks for reply wayne. Do you hav any pictures on the mx5 that has been modifyied before kit is fitted. I can see partly how much of the front end of the mX5 shell is removed but not the rear eand. What is the "seal" panels made of?

Forgot again

Think i have found the answer about rear mods on mx5. Still would like to know about prices an d lights etc

I hate to be a party pooper here but doesnt any cutting of a monocoque shell render the car SVA'able ?
I understand you have stressed no cutting of chassis rails but that is more about a seperate chassis'd view on the regulations like the Sammio range etc. The monocoque shell is considered to be a chassis in its entirety , so my understanding of the regs is the removal or modification of anything deemed structural relating to that shell is classed as a chassis modification ?
Please correct me if I am wrong or have missed the point here , not an expert by any means but just my interpretation of what I believe is the regulations regarding monocoques .

Hi with regard to cutting the front it's the inner front wings. Being that I have only removed as much as how a mk2 is and they are the same chassis basically I don't see it as an issue as the mk2 actually has less metal in that area. The rear again has no structural integrity removed as the main strengths on the mx5 is across the soft top mounting panel area. That's my understanding. It's like when people remove the windshield panel. In theory this offers no structural support to the car what so ever so again not an issue. So I'm sure it's fine. There are other kits out there that remove a hell of a lot more metal than mine and still don't have an iva.

Any updates on your demo car?

Hi Jones

The demo car will be available from Friday next week for vuewing

Any more photos?

Not yet but soon as I pick it up I will upload them. Will be a targa top when it comes back.

Elprimer, thanx for your imput, I thought that the mX5 backbone bit that joins the gear box an d engine was classed as a chassis like in the MeV cars, but now see they need IVAing. A mate of mine has pointd me at the DVLA 8point thing and you are right when you say-about not cutting the bodyshell. Back to my herald chassis I think.

Any photos?

Hi Danny not yet was expecting the cat hone yesterday but it's been delayed again. Really frustrating as I have so much interest. Hopefully not long. Fingers crossed mid week.

Regards

Wayne

Looking good, when will it be all finished?

Is there any update on this?
