Mechanic with some kitcar build experience

I am building an MK Indy and am getting some help from various people on here (Thanks Mark G), but I am aware I need quite alot of help (more than I thought) with someone who has some kitcar build experience and I dont want to push my luck asking people on here all the time. I am willing to pay the going rate for this on 1 day per month basis. If you are interested (I am in Bristol) or know someone who would be then please let me know.
thanks
James





be gentle I am new to all this :-)

You don't need that kind of help, you need this forum.

I couldn't tell you one end of a car from the other (I know, I am really screwed) but the peeps on here are really helpful and they never treat you like a fool. They always have an answer to every question you ask regardless of how simple or complicated it is.

Stick with it and keep asking questions





My wife is very understanding, she understands that if I am in the garage I am not in the house annoying her.

I would just add: do a quick search before you ask a question to see if you can get the answer that way.

If you do post a question, I'm happy to answer if I feel able to.

Good luck!

Also, for those problems where you need a quick answer, start trying to build up a list of numbers of people with experiance. Usually most people will be very willing to help out. Start with MK? I was on the phone (and still am) pretty much everytime i pick up the spanners (and i'm on the road now!)
