Title: Brutsch mopetta
Post by: richard on July 28, 2010, 01:28:58 PM

 ;) Ha ! i know how to get your attention dont I !! Actually asking the same question I asked a while back. Still wondering what suspension the new mopettas are using , does it work and who made it ? Years ago i think I saw pictures of Bert Grimmers Mopetta chassis showing the suspension , and it looked very similar ( or possibly scaled down ) to that I must source for my Pfeil. Please those who know your mopettas can you help.
attached pictures of the rubber things in a metal ring i am looking for .

the mopetta has a different rubber element. It is possible to use a mercedes 190 engine support rubber for the mopetta.
