I recently had a request from a customer who, while he has been studying the Sammio build threads came across pictures of the original "Alpha" body.
He liked it so much he asked if the mould was still available and weather I could reproduce one.
I had never look closely at the original mould but, after much effort I managed to locate the moulds and although they were quite thin they were in reasonable condition so I attempted to lay one up.
This is the result.
On the whole not a bad effort and although I do have to sort out a few issues the customer is very happy with the result and has placed a firm order.
The customer intends to fit it to a Triumph Spitfire chassis using a cage frame similar to the way the Miglia is built
The wheel base for this body is approximately 83"
Although not perfect the body in pictures is very usable so if anyone is interested in the body pictured please PM me I am looking for offers on £900 as the driver's door is missing. The driver's door could follow but only when and if I find the mould for it!
