Who made this and when?
I received this chassis along with a few other chassis bits about 12 to 14 years ago. Finally put it together with a Mura gp12 motor, FAAS gears and other bits.
Any help would be great.
Sorry it's not shiny.... 'cause it's old and probably mid 80's vintage.

Well, I am old and forget things. Thought it was longer ago than just 6 years. Oh well, painted a MAC body today for it. Thanks Mike.

This is a chassis I am restoring at the moment for a friend. I believe It started out as the same as yours Jairus.
But the original owner added hinged split pans. Kinda cool IMO.

I like what you did with it, Martin. Enough to make it presentable, but not overdone. Looks like a raced car and not a shelf queen. I know Jairus is a craftsman, and I hope he does the same with this find.

Well, I finally finished the GRP car with a MAC body of a Porsche 917 including the period correct wings. Should be a good handling car.
On the rear panel I painted the GRP logo as best I could.
Calling this one done!

Very nice, and staples instead of tape; how correct.
