howdy

just a brief message to say "hey".
Since my early school days (over 2 decades ago now) i've been interested in building a "Locost" and or Lotus 7 rep.
Currently I'm restoring a mK1 €scort...
and I've gathered a variety of bit's for..My mK1'S AND mk2 €scorts...(of which I've got a few)

:playball:

My Locost build will be a slow one as I've a garge to build yet..

please feel free to sugest and threads that I should view as a "NEWBE" to the site and Locost building.

thanks
Boreham

Welcome to the forum boreham, are you going to build from scratch, ie chassis as well?

Cheers, John

unsure yet...
I've a bit of a snail's approach to anything I do...as I gain the knoledge how to do and what to do...:gossip: :ranger:

seen a chassie cut to size on e-bay...and that might be a good kick start.....:pout:

I'd like to understand as much as I can 1 st and that'll help me decide....:idea:

the catalyst for the build is my Buddie swooping on a "TMC Costin":faint2:

it's a Lotus 7 rep I'd like to do..with a 1600 GT x flow on 40's....
I'd like it to be sparce...and old skool
