Hello, I am wondering if it were possible to get a slightly different chassis for the mev rocket. Basically, i want to replicate the vw 1 liter, so i would need a tandem seated chassis with dimenions similar: www.cartype.com/pages/2288/volkswagen_1-litre_piLength :: 144.00 in | 3657.6 mm. Width :: 49.00 in | 1244.6 mm. Height :: 44.00 in | 1117.6 mm. I think perhaps a little bit more in length would be ok though so that there is more leg room on the back seat. I would build the body of it myself most likely, all i want is the chassis/suspension. It would be great if it were already capable of fitting a kubota d902 with a vw type 2 transmission.

I always work on the basis that anything is possible. The vehicle you refer to however has 3 wheels and is long with tandem seats and a centre driving position so that rules out the Rocket, take a look at the tR1ke, that may suit your needs.

the trike isnt tandem seated either though. I wish that the specifications page for all of the chassis were like the rocket - the dimensions of the trike arent listed nor are a lot of the other information. It doesnt have to have 3 wheels though, i think as long as the bullet style body is able to be put on top of it then i should still be very aerodynamic. Basically, i was wondering if you would be willing to adjust one of your designs to fit those dimensions.

Good point Will, ECO-EXO seems to fit the bill. Slow on the uptake Scott!
