Hi everyone. Thanks for the help. It was a Locost from my limited understanding but there are some actual Caterham parts in the collection. I brought everything up to the garage and took some photos. The car frame was at his workshop.I haven't been there in a while but I'll go by this week. I also haven't come across the engine I remember being in the car when it was mocked up. I'm less concerned about getting what the parts are worth as I am in finding them a new life. And having them all go at once is the ideal situation.

Hi there, My husband passed leaving a basement full of parts for a 7 build. Any takers or advice as to what I can do with them all at once? I am located in Maryland.

Was this sold?

Which model/chassis ?

Karl, I'll take them PM Sent

Would you have any more photos of the wood car? I've been looking for several years for a picture of a seven that was part of a West System brand epoxy advertisement that looked a lot like this one. Thanks.

Few Thoughts... Is it a very well done 'Locust' ? http://www.locust.org.uk/about/about.htm There was a Supercar called the 'Splinter'.... Not sure what ever came of it. http://www.joeharmondesign.com/ There was a Picture around some years ago that I can't seem to find right now of a Caterham/Lotus S3 that had been bodied similarly to the one in the Picture by/for West System Epoxy... FWIW I have been thinking of doing something like this as an exercise for my Cabinetmaking Business.

It does? I suspect that removing the internal gearbox saved 25+ lbs. The Hartley H2 is a full 50 lbs lighter than the stock busa.

Hi All, I hope this isn't terribly inappropriate, but I am trying to help my wife's Middle School Art Class get out the word. The students have made "Hearts" in Oil Pastels which they are selling to raise money for a local Homeless Charity. The Originals are for sale at a local Wine Bar, but I am hoping to help them raise some additional funds by offering the images on a Valentines Day Card and put together a site (link below) So... if you haven't gotten your sweetie a card, here is an opportunity to do so without actually having to exert any real effort. Who knows maybe your apparent sensitivity will get you laid ? "Well I just wanted to help the children honey...." We are asking $5 for the card, mailed to you. (I know its more than a Hallmark, but it is delivered to you,it's unique and it's for a good cause) Check or Paypal Last yer the Kids did 'Hearts for Haiti' and due to the high profile of that disaster made over $1000 for the Red Cross. Unfortunately sales this year aren't great. The link is here if you are so inclined.AMS Hearts Thanks for your time, Brian PS - To the admin. if this was out of turn please accept my genuine apology

They are keeping the primary reduction gear in. Max RPM to the Transmission should be about 7000 11,000/1.6 -

The one in my shop measure about 7 1/16" +/- I am guessing though, that when mounted the center will be flexed up a bit.. T

Weather looking good so far. Hope to have a chance to see your cars. Best, T

Bound to be cheaper than the Hartley H2( http://www.h1v8.com/H2.html ), but 'perhaps' not as well engineered -
I don't know, the JPE's are readily available. The 'Cycle Fender Special' seems to be the rarest of the group. T
