Sports bodies for a special or replica or travesty (depending on your point of view)

[Mark McKibbin]

I think a Special should be a Special with all the advantages of not trying to look like something else.  I am currently building a slab sided "MG" type body on a LWB chassis using square section tube for the frame with an aluminium skin, this has allowed me to make something that will fit my long legs and still have some luggage space and importantly be lightweight.  Anything with a pointy tail may look good but is hopelessly impractical, difficult to have a spare wheel, luggage and beyond the ability of most amatures.

Just my two bobs worth.

Cheers
