Ive sold the front end steering, suspension, hub/brake assembly from the original reliant donor. I sold it on ebay for £22 - thats a lot of metal and engineering for 22 quid, but then I'm glad i could get something for it instead of simply junking it, and hopefully it has gone on to be useful to someone else....... but i wonder for how much longer?
Stuart, who is currently running 5th in the RELIANT ROBINS Points and roof grades 2006 croydon motor sports league ( http://www.croydonmotorsports.co.uk/ ) drove all the way up from Tunbridge wells (must be at least a 400 mile round trip) to collect my assembly so that he could fit it to his reliant robin race car to replace the one he'd cracked.
It just goes to show that there is nothing so interesting as people :-)

So now my budget is running at £535 plus £70 for my tank minus £22 for the racing reliant front end = £583. Crikey, that is getting tight. Maybe Barry is right, maybe i cant build a great looking trike for a grand
