Europe or US.

In the US, Circle Track Magazine always has a good number of ads for builders. Many articles on Chassis construction feature specific companies and I'd definitely reccommend getting a few copies.

You could try Arch Motors (Huntingdon/Cambridge area), family business, they build a lot of the one-make tubular chassis, eg they do or did Formula First, Global Lights etc.

I've got the number if you want it.

You could also try Safety Devices or Rollcentre. I know they specialise in roll-cages, but I'm sure could do a spaceframe.

Have you looked at the Directory section of Racecar Engineering magazine?

Hi Graham, how about Bert Ray, best known for his Formula Ford stuff but has built a number of specials over the years, used to be involved in Special Saloons, built a nice Suzuki for John Schnieder, don't know where Bert is these days, used to be London - East End. Also there's Ben Bolby, think he's contracted to Lola now, did their Sports prototype last year. I guess you already know of John Maguire.
What do you want one for ? - thought that was your line of business anyway ???

THR has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
How much money do u want to spend?
all the ones mentioned so far sound rather costly!

this for a single seater or something like a lister?
westy?

I just remembered, there's always SHP Motorsport (Sonny Howard's mob) who make the spaceframes for Eurocars & Pickups etc, but then again you probably know of them already.
