I have been given a set of drawings of a Formula Vee that was designed in the mid 70's by a Vee driver/Designer that raced in the 70's. I realize that the original design needs to be upgraded to current safety specs., and I have been converting it to cad. Here is a sketch of the RB01 Special. It is a fairly simple design. Bob believed that low and fat would be a good design.

The main frame is 20" wide and the main roll hoop is 27" tall. front and main hoops are 1.5"o/d and the main frame is a 1"x2" rectangular tubing. Is there anyone in the north east (Watkins Glen area) that can bend the hoops? 18"od X 36" long? I will cut them off to fit the finished length.
