'Darkron' recently sent me a message about Jail Door Enduro bodies. Looking for something that might qualify, I finished up an old Matra 620 mould I started some time ago- for no particular reason except that I 'm not aware of any other versions.



Anyway, here's the first Lexan test shot hurriedly painted and pinned to a Mike Steube chassis I just happened to have lying around.... Yes. Check it out. Howmet has a Steube chassis! Just wanted you all to know.

The Matra accepts a 4" wheelbase, 3" width frame, and there's 1 9/16" ahead of the front axle for a healthy guide lead. In other words it fits on Lola T70 or Lotus 40 jail door frame.

Now I want to install a cool interior- and headlights for night-time driving.

The first batch are on their way to Darkron. Let me know how they do.

Very cool John! Thank you very much for all of your time and effort bringing these bodies back.
