Rick,
Yes, sorta. Years ago I found a pdf file of the "cut list" in CAD
format for all the tubes that make the "book" Locost. Each CAD
drawing is for one tube. I built a 1/4 scale model to prove out the
CAD work - just to be sure the document was accurate. I have some
pics around here, but can't locate them just now. I'm just amazed at
how small the model is and then think how small the full size car is.
I believe the Lotus S3 - not the book model - used BMC components
throughout - engine to rear axle. I have seen a picture of one Locost
that used Spridget A arms, axles and I think lever shocks too.
