Been browsing the forum for the past year and have finally made some room in the shop to start the build. I own a small fabrication and tuning shop so I will have some help from my guys on this one. We do heavy fabrication on exotics and custom built chassis's. A few questions, I know I've read Shaggy has the plans for sale, is there a link for purchase? Also, for the guys building street legal versions of this beast, what are the approx dimensions you guys plan on going with?

Congrats on starting your build! The plans are going through it’s 4th revision as we speak and I want to make sure that I have all the measurements properly documented for the end user. This vehicle is so complicated that it’s easy to get something wrong....causing another “wrong” later down the road.

I’ve been fortunate to collaborate with a couple of builders working off my plans who have shared measurements off purchased parts, or simply suggested chassis changes to create a better driving experience while keeping the outer dimensions/look the same. Once I have everything back in order, the plans will be available again, but please keep in mind this thing is ever changing as new information is obtained all the time.

But again, congrats! And I hope to help you out soon enough! In the meantime, might I suggest looking through the “Tumbler Parts List” thread that I think ATOlink started years ago, lots of screen used parts can be found there for purchase.
