PS, I kinda figured that's what you had up your sleeve since I can't see you in anything else.
No, It's not a spec chassis. It's a MkI chassis (#FFR1728K to be specific). It's had a bolt in 6 point cage with side bars installed by guyon in canada (1 3/4 DOM IIRC). Obviously, it's not everything I had in mind for the car I wanted to build, but it's also something I can drive NOW. For now, I'm thinking convert the front to 5 lug (i have all the parts), convert the rear to IRS 5 lug, toss some AFR 185's on it and it'll be really close to what I had wanted to build. Maybe do the rear frame mods to accomodate 315's.
It's a BLAST to drive.
