Build Your Own Sports Car On a Budget  [GI 90.603 Book]		 
 
Build Your Own Sports Car On a Budget
Build Your Own Sports Car On a Budget 		£17.49
 
Building your own sports car on a budget is not only a dream, but with the guidance of this book it can also become an exciting reality.

This all-colour practical book provides a step-by-step, extensively illustrated guide to building a two-seater, open-top sports car on a budget using standard tools, basic skills and low-cost materials. The down-to-earth text clearly explains each step along the road to producing a well-engineered, high-performance sports car - opening up a new world of fun motoring.

The book shows how to make the chassis, suspension components and bodywork, and advises on how to modify and use cheap but serviceable mechanical components from a Ford Sierra donor vehicle. The end product is a budget-priced, high-performance sports car - and a learning experience in engineering and design.

With the aid of over 300 colour illustrations and CAD drawings, this book provides;
  • Three-dimensional and two dimensional colour working drawings showing how to build and assemble all components in a logical sequence.
  • Details of how to build simple jigs to ensure accurate assembly of critical components.
  • Advice on sourcing the power unit, transmission, steering, brakes and other parts from a donor vehicle.
  • Step-by-step instructions on how to build a strong tubular-steel spaceframe chassis.
  • Details of how to make and fit body panels.
  • Details of the requirements of the Single Vehicle Approval (SVA) test, and advice on how to avoid problems.
  • Appendices providing scaled, dimensional drawings for all steel tubes and plates to be cut as well as lists of useful contacts.
