Locost Seven Clone

I am selling my Locost autocross racecar, I am building a D-Prepared Miata so it needs to go. This car was originally built by Gene Young. I bought it a year and a half ago and put all the bodywork back on, added some nerf bars and raised the steering column and shifter.

One of the main reasons I bought this car was the brilliant suspension work Gene did. The front suspension is right off a formula car and can be adjusted without taking anything apart. The rear three-link and watts has a very low roll center and works very well for autocrossing. I've got a new set of R25b tires coming next week and they'll go on the car and if I still have the Locost in late July, I'll be running on them at the Houston Divisional.

I am asking $7500.00.

Lots of spare parts are included, carbs, electric, gears, extra rear axle, original bike gauges, receipts, CAD drawings, suspension files, ect.

Ask any questions, I've got answers. This car is a BLAST to compete in and is low maintenance and easy to adjust. I can deliver it within the SanAntonio, Dallas, Houston triangle.
