Hi all
I have been lurking in the background for a long time now, finally made the leap today and paid the deposit.

Building a Indy R with inboard front suspension and Hayabusa engine.

Bad part is due to work commitments I have to get somebody else to screw it together with me doing as much as possible when I am home

Welcome to the funny farm
Good luck with your build. That engine should be yummy and the whole package should be a blast.

Shop is based in North Berwick

I think his prices for labour are very reasonable.

I'm looking for a builder too as I work away a lot and don't have the time to devote to a build full time. Don't want to leave the car at the factory as I want to take time with the build and looking for a understanding builder. Is this the SKCC shop? I thought they were based in the west? Heard reports about the SKCC not being all that nice but no personal experience of them! Prefer someone closer to home - anyone know of any decent builders in the NE Scotland?

I am not sure of SKCC shop on the west coast but as far as customer service Andy is very understanding and patient. He is as enthusiastic about the build as I am. His workshop is near North Berwick so very easy to get to.

He will take on anything and assist with deliveries etc.

His main business is Hifloheads so has a lot of tuning ability along with access to one of the best rolling roads that use hub bolted system. Next door to him is a powder coaster so no problems on that front either.

He was recommended to me by some friends in the Scottish Westfield owners club who have a lot of respect for him

Andy is also a technical writer for the kit car mags.

I found him, thanks pal. Appears that there's 2 SKCCs, 1 is a club and the other is a garage but I don't think they're connected. I'll do a little more digging and contact them. Cheers.
