Has anyone found a chassis like this?

I've got a VERY small car I need a chassis for. Mark, at Immense Miniatures makes this from Shapeways, but I'd hoped to print my own if I can. If not, I'll have to purchase a few of his.

So, has anyone come across something similar?

Thanks in advance!

Hey Doc,
The only thing I can think of is the Devised Design Slimline pod and front end. I have a couple.

They are out of production, and I haven't taken the time to draw up and test a new Slimline pod (the front end is easy). The pod itself wouldn't be hard, it's just caliper time (like the Artin chassis) and I haven't bothered to do it.
Maybe someone else has?

That's a neat design, but looks complicated to print......

I'm working on one for a Jaguar XKE.

Want to try one? It's setup to take 3/32 x 1/2 rivets for the front axles.
And I have one setup for a Karmon Ghia with a modeled up engine in the rear.

It also uses the rivets for the front axles.

Peter on the HRW 1/43 forum has a Shapeways shop and produces a similar adjustable chassis for 1/43 using FF050 and square motors, appear applicable to small 1/32 cars
