Its oil tight and water tight, I'd just take it to be set up to be honest. You could do more harm than good driving it about mega rich etc.

Apologies if you have addressed this already, i have read a this a while back and just skimmed through again but will this be track only or road legal? If so what are the rules on the spaceframe? Is a beauty and would look amazing out on the road.. i think it would cause some accident from all the rubber necking

Hi Dave , originaly the plan was for both road and track but the more the car has evolved the more it will probably just be used for track . With a 4mm ally floor and rose jointed suspension it would be far from pleasant driving down our crappy roads of today .
As far as the implications on putting it on the road , I'm not sure it should be aloud . The car (outer shell ) is a 72 clubman and my friendly mot guy says he will not it for me , I'm covered to drive anything with my insurance and obviously it's tax free. There is the problem with the dvla as that car hasn't been on the road for 20+ years so they might question that .
The other thing would be to sva test it but I really Carnt be bothered with all that.

It absolutly could be put on the road with an SVA. But if you wanted to go that route you need to plan it from the start.

It'd be a lot of effort for a car that would be useless even getting off the drive!

Just tell the dvla the car was mothballed and you've reinstated it, would be a shame not to be able to take it on the road

I think it would be a shame not to atlesst have it on the road atleast once!!! If complications happen then atleast u did it... especially as you have a friendly enough mot tester offering it to you! Do it until you get told not to i say!!! I dont think the 20+ years will be a problem as ive done it in the past.. went to tax a car n they said you gotta pay for that.. i said errr nope its 69.. there was an argument in the post office and it took a few minutes to change it all but off i went with my free tax after decades of it being off road *smiley*
