Thought I'd show you what I'm going to be building, or at least the base of all the structure. At left is a Photo of the frame of Keith Tanner's "7" ( courtesy of cheapsportscar.net) with a dummy engine installed for initial measurements. As you can see, there's not much to it. A bunch of 1" & 3/4" square tube, a little 1/8" steel plate and not much more. The whole structure weighs in at little more than 100 lbs. Keith purchased his as part of a kit from a company that is now defunct, but I plan on making mine from scratch. Not a big deal for a someone that knows how to weld. I do! You can see my first post from February about my technical background.
