Both items can be seen on the Book of Faces and they are asking $800 for the chassis and $800 for the body kit.   Designed for Hayabusa power.

That sounds like a pretty killer head start for someone who wants a Seven.

If you're thinking of the company out West that was producing Caterhams (I think), this doesn't look like a Caterham chassis. They have a lot more round tubes and the scuttle is further back. They also didn't have that front bumper. It's more reinforced than a Locost book chassis, though.

Looks like a Dax Rush chassis.  Great head start on a locost!

I'm both sad & glad that isn't close to me. I sure don't have time/room/money for yet another project, but a Seven clone is definitely on my project list.

In reply to Brotus7 :

Based on a little more research I am pretty sure you are correct.

This photo of the pedal box area  from a Dax Rush  forum seems to match up well in terms of location and construction.

And, it's gone. I was just thinking I needed a Hayabusa powered Lotus 7 in my life.
