Anyone looking for a SR3 chassis?

Just seen this ad on another forum, no connection to the seller but though it might be of interest to someone on here

How strange. How would you end up with just a rolling SR3 chassis? Crashed/repaired perhaps.

If it's proper, looks like you could put an SR3 back together for a reasonable amount of money. I guess as a reasonably early car, it'll be less sophisticated than later ones (wilwoods for example).

Little winter project for you Bert? I know you like taking these things apart and putting them back together again...

I wonder if the clubsports will be in the rad club cup next year. Just my luck, car not in bits, foot not in bits and...

Sure they will be, but I guess most of the SR3 owners will have upgraded to PR06's by next year

Was the chassis different for the later cars? If so, what were the modifications made? Thanks

I don't think the chassis will be materially different between early / later cars. Aero/brakes could be easily 'upgraded' as required.

I note the ad states the car originally ran an 1100 motor. I wonder therefore if it was once an Introsport / Tracksport variant (can't remember exact name) which, I believe, Radical marketed very early on in the SR3's life with the 1100 motor as standard...
