Hi Steve

We're opposites it seems. I have years of experience as a welder, but my mechanics & electrics are iffy.


I found that before starting it pays to plan as much as you can.

If you make the chassis, THEN decide on what parts to use you could end up modding before you have barely started.

Glad you said that the engine I am strongly thinking about is a rover v8 as used to be in drag racing all the other parts are the problem want to make wish bones etc
