Hey Folks,

Been reading this site for a while now and even though my build isn't exactly Locost, it was my first 'car' and I learned a lot from all of you. We built it over the course of a year in full stealth mode. If I had kept a build log it probably would have taken 30% more time. Hope the "finished" pictures make up for it.

Let me know what you think. We're hoping to sell these as kits for intrepid builders, or complete rollers/vehicles for those less mechanically inclined.

Thanks,
Hong

Is it just me or does some of those pic's look like they are in Jay Leno's Garage? Good looking car. It is a little too modern for my tastes. But that is just me. Does it have a reverse? Russ

Sharp eye Russ. We taped an episode of Jay Leno's Garage last weekend. It should be on his site in the next few weeks.

It does have a mechanical reverse inside the transmission.

Thanks Tony! All the details are on our website. Please let me know if there is anything else you'd like to know about the vehicle.

The suspension is not off the Lotus, but the chassis was designed by an ex-Lotus Engineer.
