who keeps a blog on their build?
FuryRebuild - 29/6/14 at 12:38 PM

I (and I suspect, many others) keep a blog on their build. After installing the wordpress app, I realised it lets me aggregate blogs into a reader.

So, why don't you comment below on your blog URL and we can keep a list, and it means we can more easily read eachother's blogs.

I'll kick it off with www.furyrebuild.co.uk.

Not a Locost but if you replace the space frame chassis with a Ford Anglia monocoque I am fitting most of the bits used on Kit Cars (Escort Mk2 front end, Live English Axle rear, Sierra XR4x4 brakes, 1.7 Zetec SE engine, Type 9 gearbox). There may be a few tips in there for someone.

Note - I have found Weebly very easy to use and it's free which is a bonus.

Also, if anyone has comments - particularly the speed of the Image page loading then I will gratefully receive all constructive (and non) critique/comments

never understood why there isnt a project section on this forum like most car forums where you can document your build online

blogs are great but its far easier to go on one site and find everone project threads than using individual blogs

I tend to do both. If I get a lot of help on a subject I post my responses here and the blog, but I keep other stuff on the blog as well and I started the blog before I came to LCB. The blog lets me reach other people that may not come to the forum.

I have a build blog (in english) here: http://happyblade.blogspot.pt

I have just the images on a Picasa web album. The images on the blog come from this album: https://plus.google.com/photos/+DuarteLoreto/albums/5477953270596274945

I seldom add a photo to the album that I don't then show on a blog post, but stated the album's link just in case someone prefers to see just pictures.

A blog, long running and not much recent progress! And a midi, not a locost....
