{"product_id":"build-your-own-sports-car-on-a-budget","title":"Build Your Own Sports Car: On a budget","description":"Product Description\n\nThis all-new colour book provides a step-by-step, extensively illustrated guide to building a two-seater, open-top sports car using standard tools, basic skills and low-cost materials. The down-to-earth text 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.\n\nReview\n\nOctane (UK), June 1, 2007 Well-written and superbly laid-out. It should be inspirational for boys and girls of all ages. \"\n\nAbout the Author\n\nChris Gibbs is Vice Secretary, Newsletter Editor and Technical Adviser of the Locost Car Club.
