So ,after years of procrastination and excuses I've bitten the bullet, I have purchased my welder and started making space in my already crammed single garage, I've just about settled on a chassis design and most importantly I have purchased my engine/box and prop shaft (from MK1 MX5 1.8).....for the princely sum of £50.00 (absolute steal) I had always planned to fully rebuild the engine I put into my Locost, so couldn't go wrong really (sure this will bite me in the a##) I pick the engine and box up on the 14th May, it's pretty local , this will be no quick project , likely to have long pauses while I deal with life (self employed plumber and dad/husband) but I'm finally doing what I have dreamed about for years and I'm pretty stoked.....

Welcome and I look forward to your progress and don't forget to fill in your full profile so locals can look to help when appropriate. Good luck.
