Good advice from all many thanks,
Cheers guys all v good advice.
Forgot to mention also got donor Sierra stashed with DOHC engine.
Had a Eunos 1.8 import and loved it, but always had an urge to build my own car since i read Alan Staniforth's book years ago.
Anyway taking into consideration time (not as much as i would like) welding ability (same), money (a bit could always be more) i have made the decision.
The final decision was my wife's actually to be fair, she said she thought a chassis was the way to go. She has seen my welding!!!
So will be contacting both Saturn and Talon to chat about prices etc. Im in West Yorkshire which i know is closer to Saturn but have read good things about both.
Would like to get going with the parts i need for a rolling chassis possibly minus the dampers/springs and then concentrate on the running gear/engine from the Sierra.
Anyway cheers for the advice and i love your sticker Andy, will def want one of them.
Bring on the build and a multitude of questions i suspect,
Cheers,
Nik
