In the drivers cabin, the racing seat

The seat is the main issue in a race car, it needs to be type approoved and very strong, it has a time life span and if the car is in an accident that seat may be scrapped.

Cobra brand seat that was an import, two only just fit in the car due to the wings on the seat.

Special side mounts come with each seat, one pair a seat, you will need special 8mm hi tensile bolts to fit them.


Do not remove the lables.


Note the internal roll cage.


The office is quite bare, white side covers were later fitted to the two doors to tidy the place up, we used a very light weight ply, painted white it blends in.
