MacPherson struts are for cheap commuter cars, not a performance suspension. Camber change = body roll. To make it handle the springs and anti-roll bar need to be very stiff to resist body roll, and put in a lot of caster so it gains camber on the outside wheel when turned.
Yeah, never responded.
Wonder if you could talk a guy who owns a non-crashed Ariel into letting you 3D scan his car. Maybe woo him with a romantic dinner or something?
Yes…. Never said anything about being a good choice for the op.
I have thought about that. I really just need/want the front suspension mounting points. The rear suspension is in tact and good, but the front is missing. If I could figure out the front, I could just connect the dots. I don't have the ability to roll tubing like the factory chassis, but I can bend up to 2.25".
Dang you’re breaking my heart, using 2010 Camaro front stub under a truck and wanted it to corner well 🤷

dakar in the front, f1 in the back
That is kinda what I am thinking would be the ideal plan. I have a few design ideas I would like to incorporate into the build. A roll cage and windshield frame for starters. I would hate to eat a deer at 55 mph.
my thought was to get it in a cad model than contract with someone that has a fancy cnc bender and just make all new pieces just like factory and then slug weld them to the damaged frame.

yeah, but if you just want the absolute fastest thing on the track....And for $120k or whatever those cost, I sure as **** wouldn't be spending it on that thing. That's used Ferrari or Porsche money if you shop around. A roof, heat and A/C would be nice for that kind of coin.
The Camaro has two sub frames that carry the entire suspension.It's a unibody car with struts and no upper A arms. How's that work?
