Now listen Andrew, You have to loan those parts to Extreme so that Ashley can take a mould of them. Then he can sell me the vent pods  for my 360. It will save me a whole lot of work :D :D

Nice purchases just the same.

Ash knows they are available! If they get the time & the demand (they have rather a lot on their plate at the moment) I get the feeling they may spawn several copies before they make it into my car!!

may want to check it again in the states side ebay.  It is supposed to be for 6.  When I thought I was going to make some moves to order my (the wifes)  360 kit I started scouting and emailed him asking if he had 6.  Later in the day he changed it to 6 available.  Try it now:

Cheers, Extreme.  Can't wait to see the car!

Is there going to be an interior kit and fake engine kit as well for the 430?

Extreme, for the 12k supply and fitting ready for paint, what exactly is included in the kit i.e lights, badges, glass, exhaust etc? Is the build cost for the 430 going to be similar to a 360 or more in line with a murci?

One last question, i know you have had a hell of alot on but are you going to eventually do a fake engine kit and replica interior for this?

Also could we get a price list for the 430 (if different from 360) and will you still offer the 360?  The reason I am asking is my wife wants the 360 so I have been buying 360 interrior pieces here and there but hers has to be done before I can get my 430.  Still looking for ways to get the Pug in US, any ideas as I have heard of a few?

Extreme, BRAVO on the news of the 430.....I am still quite saddened by the fact that I didn't get a chance to visit while I was around Oxford in April. You are really far from their as well, so the windows of time were small...Thanks for trying to work with me though..

About the 15K pounds,.....this gets the car ready for paint, would it be possible for you to find a LHD donor? And would you be willing to work with a US buyer to ship the car "in such a way" as it would make the pickup as smooth as possible?

I would be interested in the 430 kit, but I would like to see an improvement on the roof shape and have authentic glass all round including the windscreen, how about an exact interior? ....something else on the wishlist is the ability to install a v8 engine in the rear.

After what I have seen Extreme do with the Murci on an MR2 I know that they could create a 430 with exact dimensions, so maybe they could offer a subframe that welds to rear suspension turrets with mountings for the original engine or a V8 that would be sweet. And seeing as the engine has been removed from the front you can maybe have a custom wide wishbone supension setup on a subframe so the wheels can be fitted without spacers. Off course it will all cost extra but it would be the ultimate 430 replica with 100% body and a V8 engine. What do you guys think?

Or am I asking for too much  ;D

Wife typing-  My husband agrees with you GTO but that would push the time for the kit to be ready/open to all.  It would be great because V-8s are not hard to find and he was thinking about putting one in my 360 and his 430 (long story) but in all would that not drive the time of the build up.  He would love it could be done but it is unlikely.  But don't listen to him he is having a bad day. :'(

Maybe Extreme could offer upgrade packages for those who wanted real glass and subframe for mid-engine, but I dont know how big the demand would be as it will be beyond most customers budget.

The 430 is an easier build due to it having no rear panel,  the frame at the rear has different mounting points to make things easier, bolt directly in to position using the rear seat belt mounting hols and suspension tops It has been designed with a quick build in mind, the front suspension has been changed to use a 1 inch spacer so allowing any wheel to fit, the roof will not be changed as the new skin we used for the 360 came directly off a genuine(same as 430)  im assuming you mean the windscreen pillars James?, in my opinion it would be best for safety reasons to use the existing pillars, I know they are 1 inch thicker than the genuine but this is the only compromise on the full car,
