Post subject:  Luke's 4EFTE Clubman - New Project

Hello all,

I am currently planning my house with construction to start early in the new year, which will of course include a double garage (single width, double length) specifically for mini's so I want to start planning my clubman/4efte project, which I intend on racing in the MG car clubs Mattara Hillclimb through King Edward Park and the Buladelah Hillclimb. I also intend on road registering it for daily driving.

So I am going to go question by question and hopefully get all the answers over the coming months.

Q1. Does anyone make the subframes for sale? or will I have to have one made?

Q2. Can anyone that has a picture of their subframe could they please post it on this post?

I look forward to your responses.

PS - I do not have the car or the engine yet ... as I want to do all the research first ... I will get both once my house is done.

Archangle007 will make you one, but as anybody who is custom making a frame, they will need the car, or you may not get a true fit (becuase the tolerances are so small, much smaller than BMC/Leyland used).

There are many different varieties of frames. You are best to search through threads in the conversion section for them.

Don't get excited, he's giving you his 2 cents worth of opinion, not offering you his van for 2c :D
