Hello. I am looking for a 25-35F Crossle frame and suspension components. I got hit at RA during the 50th and totaled out my 25F. Engine, transaxle, fuel cell, electronics, brakes and fire bottle I think are still good. I need basically everything else. Maybe someone has a complete car that needs restoration. Buying a restored car or all new components isn’t in the budget. Please reach out on the thread or PM and let’s see what we can make a deal on. Thanks!
I was lucky enough to go back and spectate for the 50th at RA. After seeing the damage to the frame, I am amazed you were not badly hurt. Glad you are ok and rebuilding.
A couple of years back I had talked to Crossle cars about a replacement 45F frame for a client. I was quite pleasantly surprised at the cost of a new frame (£3750.00). I know that’s not a small amount of money but for a brand new frame it might be worth looking into. And the £ to $ might make it more advantageous now than it was in 2016 when I was shopping. That is, assuming they will do a 25 frame for a similar rate as a 45.
Glad and to see you’re ok, those are some scary pics.

Tough break on the car, Bud. Been there, done that, have the tee-shirt.
Give Archie Hodge a call. I am supremely confident he can either repair the frame, or build you a new one the is precisely perfect. Simply a Master at this, and I have heard rumors to the effect he can weld water.

Or call DND Fabricators in Puyallup, WA.. they have built several Crossle chassis from scratch over the years and may have other items you need.

Thanks all. Anyone got a contact for Archie? I have seen a number on Apex and google but haven’t found a good number.

Thanks again for the support and contacts fellow racers. My frame was bent past repair, unless I wanted to start with the roll bar. I have landed on a 32F roller needing complete restoration and a spare frame to boot. Hope it only ever takes one frame going forward. Look forward to the season ahead.
that will not buff out
good to know the driver is OK
Progress report, please.
