Do you have any further information on this one please (mechanical base, etc.?) as I can't seem to find out anything about it. Thanks.

René Schneeberger built the tubular chassis and most of the aluminium bodywork by himself. Just parts of the rear came from the UK. The mechanical parts are a Triumph front axle, while rear axle, brakes and the engine came from a Ford Esort RS 2000. The gearbox was taken from a Ford Sierra.
