The Kit Car Manual: The Complete Guide to Choosing, Buying and Building British and American Kit Cars - Hardcover
Synopsis
A timely update of the original book, published in 2003. Although the fundamentals behind the kit-car scene have changed little since the book was originally written, the hardware has evolved, mainly due to the increased availability of affordable motorcycle engines, and the reduced availability of several former favorite donor vehicles. This new edition includes more detail and advice on the use of a wide variety of motorcycle engines, and will include updated examples of new designs and developments that have become available over the last few years. The appendix detailing useful contacts has been revised and updated, as will a number of the photographs depicting example car builds.
