Excellent forum with a lot of good info. I bought the book some time ago and recently stumbled upon this site. Heres me on the wrong side of 50 and now I want to build.

age is not an issue, welcome and good luck

ditto - enjoy!

Not only is building a car not a problem on the wrong side of 50, but there are a fair number of guys who compete in the Hill Climbs where I go. They are not slow either!

Welcome

Welcome. Your never to old for anything mate. Another scot as well, the numbers of us are rising quite fast. I used to know a group of guys from Inverness that raced at cowdenbeath. Some of them were into rallying as well. Seen some of them at autosport. A good bunch of guys from around your way are well into motorsport.

No had a BMW actualy, two wheeled type 1975 vintage, but the good lady made me give it to my son last year because I dropped it, (taking it of the stand). Thats when she bought me the Bloody book still not long now to finni, and then like Toad, Broooom, Broooom.
