Smile Welcome chaps

Welcome to the new crew

Going to be megga fun having 4 builds on the go & great idea it is too.

Only 1 build table to mark out & 1 set of jigs to make

I am sure that by the time the fist chassis is complete the other 3 will come together very quickly.

Good oportunity to haggle a good discount when it come to buying 4 lots of build components

Looking forward to following your progress.

We are based in kings Lynn, we had an hour on it tonight,
Getting on quite well with the first chassis,
1 of us has bought a 1.6 mx5 for the donor car. Any thoughts!!!

Time just seems to fly by when working on it!!
How much do you save on powder coating doing a group buy

Good choice of donor
Have a look at Saturn's MX5 plans.

It's not just my garage that manages to bend time then? If I pop in there for 10 minutes, 2 hours seems to fly by in the outside world

Talking One of the crazy Four

Hi all,
Well at last I found a hobby and a group of freinds to share it with. It all started a week ago with just two of us considering a build, now a week later and there are four of us and a chassis well under way.......cool
Really looking forward to building something I... we can be proud of.
We have all split up into different roles so build will be much quicker but unfortuneately I am the old man of the group (well apart from TONY) so I get the tedious jobs "Jigs etc... but they will tell you otherwise. So far I've built two jigs and they have built nearly a complete front chassis.
Well I'm sure everybody will introduce themselves in due course except Tony possibly as we are still trying to get him to use a PC....

We will keep you posted of our progress with photos ( Hint....Hint.... Simon.) and would listen to any advice/help you can give us...

Thanks again Johno
