Love the frame but I hate offset engines.

Blimey, that was smart... Another builder that hasn't shown their work to the forum, shame.

There's a lot of work gone it to the frame and it looks like the guy knows what he is doing.

I'll second that it's a shame no info was posted on the forum it would of been a great read, i wonder how many sammio are out there being built with no reference made on this forum?

As the subframe has been welded to the original chassis would this then not need IVA as the chassis would have been altered?

Just from the pics it looks like the intention might have been to race the car so not an issue but it might be if someone is looking to put it on the road.

Chassis doesn't look like it's been altered to me. Isn't the subframe just a bracket to hang the new body on?
