Sad Radical
Hi Charley. And Thanks to Phil and you, a very interesting photo its strange looking at the blue o/s side skirt as i finished of all the fiberglass repairs to day and that was the last panel i finished so all is virtually done now i am going to clean up the chassis tomorrow and remove all the rest of the rivets etc and then see if radical will put it in the jig to rebuild the front of the chassis and then its build time and parts shopping. i can see from the photo that it did have a ecoboost engine RCN eng no ? please send or post more photos if available.
Many Many thanks Paul.
Paul, here are a couple of more pictures of your car that Phil sent.

Hi Charley theres a lot of brain power working away there . I have cleaned the chassis today of all the old glue and crud and you can tell the engine has been in and out a few times the chassis is in good condition and i will have to wait for Radical to re open and see if the have a window to revamp the front of the chassis and how many parts they have in stock it would be nice for me to view a car in the raw without the panels as most of the parts i could make myself i will take a few photos and post them in a while of all the panels etc.
Thanks Paul.
Hi All A few photos
Hi Paul (@levo), Sorry it took so long to get approval to print this, but your car is very special in that parts of it went on to create the prototype Ford GT that was displayed around the world. You can read about it in the latest version of "Ask Phil"

Hi Charley.
I had it in my mind that it would be the ford GT.
That is amazing and a great qudos to radical that there vehicle went in to building the Ford GT (well done Radical)
Thank you to You and Phil for the info
the chassis has now been repaired and i have contacted Radical fo the suspension parts to further the rebuild i will post a few more photos soon of the frame when i have painted it .
Hi All i have acquired quite a few parts for the RXC all the suspension uprights wheels brakes gearbox etc so will start to rebuild it now and get it to a rolling chassis. also purchased chassis number 1 RXC spyder with a 650 hp eco and air to air cooling what a monster it is.It was originally a red car but it is now wrapped in Martini colours the only thing i have changed is the seats as they
are massive and replaced them with B6 Screamers by Tillett as i am inly 5.9 on a good day
@levo Paul, would you have any interest in parting with this chassis? I recently purchased a 2016 Ecoboost Spyder, which I'd like to convert into a coupe. I had reached out to the original seller a few days ago, and was trying to have him pass a message along. I'd pay a substantial premium over your purchase price. If not, glad to see you making progress on putting it back together.
Hi John.
