Warm welcome !

I can recall that Toniq as I looked at it as a possible build. The paintwork did standout in the right way !

Do you do any painting outside of work ?

Enjoy posting and do come along to the meets when you can.

Nick, do you mean this one?


Would be a great deal of fun but personally I'm not to struck on the design, sorry.

David H

I quite like it. Very old school. I would be happy to test pilot that all day!!

aliwizard

yes thats the one, styling not my cup of tea, BUT what about wider track  wishbones, pushrod activated dampers,and a capro t1 type body droped on top, does it float anyones boat lol. cheers nick

Bulldog Bri

Where would you get the body panels. Or are you supposed to make your own?  :o

If you mean this..


Then yes, it floats my boat for sure :). Really one for the track though? Or a big street poser?

Very solitary specialist racing market maybe?, but who knows, if you have the investment and time to create an amazing machine that blows the many competitors away, and if the price is right and marketing is spot on, especially for buyers looking for a good track day car but one that was civilised enough for a day out with the missus, who knows??. Good luck if you want to put it into production. I would be certainly be happy to advertise the car here for starters :). And test drive it too;)

Just give me a tunnel long enough for me to drive it upside down...

aliwizard

the body  panels i would make, and would be available from me , that way you could build your own chassis ect from the book ,and fit my bodywork on top sold with a set of out riggers ect, that way you could still build it for a very low buget and have a  super car look with supercar performance, i mean just look at the thing,

MrFozzieBear

Alright nick i've sent you a message.
