    roadster dimensions

    Has anybody had the time or already got some prints of the roadster measurements or where I could access them as I am thinking up a few ideas and frankly can't be bothered to go and measure the whole chassis and panels. Any little bits would help.

    Steve Green's Keep and Share site has a Roadster data sheet. If you've not already asked him for access I highly recommend that you do as it's full of useful Marlin information that Steve has collated and kindly makes available to other members of the Marlin community.

      Thanks for the plug.
      I did consider replying, but wonder just what information was being requested.
      The wheelbase of a Marina based Roadster depending on LWB or SWB is well documented. Steering and Suspension geometry and dimensions are identical to a Marina regardless of whether the donor was a Mk1, 2, 3 or Ital. but if it's detailed Roadster chassis dimensions, I have never seen a detailed chassis drawing, though one must exist somewhere in the archives.

      Loads of Marlin Reference can be found documents here or there.
