I think www.softbitsforsevens.co.uk/ are up for doing 'one offs'. If you contact them they will probably help.

When I got a half hood for my Locost, I bought one made for the largest Caterham and made the screen surround and rollbar to fit. I did measure up hoods when at Stoneleigh show and the Caterham one was closest to my measurements.

Just go topless    My previous kits were and I managed 6 years in them. Ok it does limit the use a little when its hammering down but that's all part of the fun!!!

Hello Ronan

I wish I could make some recommendations but having never had any trimming done I cant, sorry.

Hi All,

I'm new the forum but skipped the intro post as I'm not technically in the club yet, as I don't own a kit car but am seriously considering buying one from a friend of mine.

The car is a 2001 Vindicator Sprint 1600 running a highly tuned Pinto unit that I am told is "frighteningly fast". We'll find out on the test drive.

The reason for the post is I am hoping someone can recommend a decent, and hopefully, cheap trimmer in Bristol or elsewhere that could put together some wet weather gear, ie. doors and a roof for the Sprint as it currently has none?

I've had one quote of 1200 - 1500 quid which might be enough to put me off if I can't find one cheaper. I dont plan to use it in the wet for obvious reasons but the weather being what it is I don't want to not have the option to button down if the weather turns on me when I'm out and about.

Cheers n beers!

The outbuildings were formerly used as animal shelters and are pretty run down, so will probably dismantle and re-use the bricks etc for another store or even accommodation, but that's for later. One way or another I will have a workshop, loads of parking, mortgage free, rent free and council tax of 40 gbp p.a. Autogas for the Van is 45p litre, road tax 50 gbp p.a.

I see someone is producing Austin Healey 3000 bodies in f/g to fit MK chassis, might be taking a closer look at that, now I have the space, and sunshine!

Sounds nice. Loving the fact you have 2 garages!!! That's a treat for you. No more working in the  rain on your car Feel free to pop up some pics 

Wishing you all the best in your new home home, it sound great!! Don't forget to post once in while
