    does anyone know where there is a 2b double front wishbone chassis. gbs have one left but will only sell as a plus kit and I think it might be gone by the time i get my insurance claim sorted. failing that it their any one local to leicester who would fance rebuilding the front end on mine. pic of damage shown on other posting

  18. rubber engine mounts have sheared off so front of engine still kising radiator (wots left of the rad)
  19. engine has come forward so branch manifold has dented side panel but all other chassis rails look to be fine think it has twisted front to rails in where box rection has gone back. would be great if there was some local to leicester that could pop round with theres so could mesure things up with a tape
