If you like the look, Simon, there is a popular book out there that details how to build a Lotus-7 from the ground up for 500ÂŁ. I think that would be less than the Arkley kit.

...and it wouldn't look like someone put a Seven in a vise with a Spridget and foreshortened the two of 'em into THAT.

LOL.
Believe me, the thought is crossing my mind.
In my other hobby I've definitely adopted the big engine + tubing + big tire philosophy /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif

The chassis fabrication work looks pretty straight foward, and I'm envisioning a cheap domestic I4 or V6, RWD donor car like a mustang or camaro providing the majority of the other parts....
....must stay out of the classified adds and away from locost sites! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif

From the photo I see you've already got a good tubing bender, the welder and all the necessary tubing fab gear... now all you'd really NEED would be an English Wheel and *SHAZAM!* You're cobblin' together a tried, tested chassis!
Next project could be a counterfeit Maser "birdcage"!!
...dam good thing this bunch'a BCF'ers don't live closer together. We'd ALL be in hot water. Constantly. "John" would know *exactly* where to visit to apprehend th' perps...
On second thought, why not in a community?!? Mebbe THEN we could actually make this nonsense PAY something! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
