Haynes roadster is one of the latest build your own. Its designed around the sierra wherethe early home builds where based upon Escort and Cortina
Donors. Welcome back
Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

Haynes Roadster is also being built around Mazda MX5 donors which are cheap and more plentiful than Sierras now. Several people are also offering
pre-cut flat-pack chassis kits which seem to work well.

Thanks, so who does flat packs? Mx5 sounds good, think I've missed a bit since 2006!
I was thinking of tiger avon, built chassis a few years ago but sold it!, is the new book for the Avon any different to the old one?
Ive just taken delivery of the new haynes book to take a look at
Look forward to starting to build again
