Has anyone built a spyder Corsa from Reed Engineering?

I'm sure a few have frequented the board in the past so you may be in luck and get a reply. Lovely car.

Not owned by Reed Engineering any more but now Fiorano I believe http://www.corsaspyder.com/Home.html

Took me a while to get a reply and brochure from them (holidays apparently) but I'm still interested. Just a few things to get out of the way first then I'm off hunting for an abandoned Spitfire project and an Alfa Romeo V6.

What a beauty, I remember meeting one of the owners at Stoneleigh in 2005, a very niche chap and really helpfull in giving info on the car, I believe I took about 15 photos of this car!

I'd love to have one of these with more modern engines and wheels, and the V6 Alfa would make it a perfect retro racer.
I wonder what is the cost for a complete car?, I know my friend was really interested at the time....

Will follow their new developments......

I still use my old Reflex camera, so the images are not digital, if that is fine for you, I will scan the best.

Let me know where to send them to....

Cheers Italo,

If you scan them as jpg files then you will be able to upload them straight into the site. The Spyder corsa for example the link is,

http://www.madabout-kitcars.com/133/133picgallery.htm

Each model of kit has a similar gallery page to upload pictures.

Anybody else reading this, get uploading and let's get past 1000 pictures.

Cheers, John

Uploaded the best shots, I hope they look good on the computer!
JG 14 Sep 2006, 9:20pm
Many thanks Italo, they are now in the gallery.

I also got off my backside and added some Corsa shots from this years Stoneleigh show. Had a bit of a problem with my camera at that point as unknown to me I had accidently set it on low res so they havn't come out big or detailed. Still not bad though.

These cars are quite stunning though :jaw:

Cheers, John
