Buy one and upgrade/update it ,it will be cheaper and probably a lot quicker than building one from scratch.

Dare I say it, I'm in Birmingham and you're more than welcome to have a look around mine-it's not the best example but only cost me 400 quid to get it the stage it's at now. It'll possibly give you some idea of what's what.

And it's road legal too.  8)

thanks for the replys,

i understand that it is posibly better to buy one built and upgrade it but thay involves spending the whole amount in one go where as building one lets me spread the cost over the time it takes to build the car although it will probably cost more in the end.

i would be gratefull if those that are willing to let me look at thier cars could send me a contact number to [email protected]

Hi Steve,
Im in between Bicester, Buckingham and Aylesbury just off J9 M40. I've got my car reduced to bits at present and if you want to see where to look on one of these things I can show you all the critical points.
regards
