Announcing the BEARDOG #3 CHASSIS. This is again designed for 1.5 litre F1’s but has a number of new features ;- The top plate has now been ommited to make it easier for body fitting. The chassis frame is a little narrower than the #1 and #2 at just 0.590” and also features 2 optional motor mounts and 2 pairs of different pattern rear pillar blocks with provision for different rear suspension detail. The Chassis is also designed as a “flexi board, with a centre pivot utilising 1/16” bore tube and 16g piano wire.    |

Hi Russel, Thanks for the info. I have a BT3 and a BT7 but I might have to resist the urge and be patient and wait for a 19 or 24.  Cheers |
