550A chassis | 356 Speedster, 550 Spyder, Replica, Automotive Community

Hi Guys(Galls).

Q. Does anyone have ANY reference at all on the 550A chassis? Pictures, diagrams, dimentions, tube diameters, anything whatso ever...
I am planing a 550A build and have drawn up chassis plans from the info I have but would like some more to finalise/double check my workings. I have some views of the bare chassis from the Ludvigsen book 'EXCELENCE WAS EXPECTED' that someone sent to me. However, there is a view in the book of the 550A chassis from the back, with suspension fitted that is on the page 'after' the page that I have. I dont have a page number but wondered if anyone who has the book could scan me a copy?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

All the best.
Chris
