Also the Haynes Roadster doesn't have adjustable castor, so I'm not sure where those figures have come from.

try string, plumb bobs, tape measures, straight edges, levels, protractor, chalk, time, patience and some thought. You will probably be able to get it better than any wheel aligning workshop, with all the fancy equipment, anyway because most of the guys (at least all the ones I've ever dealt with) that operate that equipment have no idea what they're doing or what they're trying to achieve.
As for castor, your building the car, you can either make it what you want or make it adjustable. If your car doesn't have any caster it will wander all over the road.
