Book Chassis Plan

[GBOLT]

I found this on a site and thought someone out there scratch building might find it helpful. I have been lurking for sometime and am planning to build a super stalker.

I used those plans for mine. The only "error" I have with it is the upper tubes of the tranny tunnel should be directly above the lower tubes, not straight as indicated. This makes panel fitment easier.

 

I have a LOT of issues with the rear of the locost chassis - it makes fitting a "boot" quite difficult. Plus, there isn't enough room for good suspension travel in the rear (I had to move some tubes after mine was built :banghead: , though mine sits rather low).

GBOLT,

 

Send me your e-mail address and I will reply with a .pdf of the 134-page Caterham manual as an attachment. I downloaded it from the California Caterham Club website, but I can't seem to pull up that site tonight.

 

I received a printed assembly manual with my kit in May 2007 (a slightly newer version than my .pdf copy), but I understand that Caterham is now accommodating frequent updates and changes by only doing a .pdf version now.

 

My e-mail is tmeacham@gci.net

FYI you can also download the Caterham build manual from the Caterham Cars UK website.

All,

 

Jim McSorley's site has the book reduced to CAD drawings (and pdf's). http://mcsorley.net/locost/
