Hello All, so I thought i just say hello as I am just dipping my toe in to a new project with my 16 yr old son and something I have always wanted to do is build a kit car. Been looking at kit cars and think the Exocet would be the best starter project for us.

Hopefully will have the go ahead from the boss after I have completed the decorating to purchase a MX5 in a few months!!


So if any one is local to me I think a guy called Chris also in Colchester  has built one would like to give advise over a covid beer when the Pubs reopen that would be great ? cant beat advice from a project builder!!!

Also I have completed quite a few rebuilds of cars and a mechanic myself so if any one needs a hand with a build in the strip down or what ever I will be willing and able.... I work a dreamy shift of 2 weeks on and 2 weeks off so could have a spare few days, Happy to travel but not crazy distance to help out.

Hopefully not in the to distant future my build will be up..

Welcome, unfortunately there are not many visitors to the forum which is a huge shame, to find somebody local you would be best looking for the Exocet group on Faecesbook

cheers for that..... very reluctant to join farcebook but I guess this ol dog is going to take the plunge eventually !!

Welcome to the club!
A lot of members have moved over to Facebook now for the convenience of it. Much easier to get a quick response to a question.
The forum is still a great resource for build diaries etc though and they're much easier to browse through.

Hi and welcome, I'm nr Ashford Kent and we've finished ours at long last. My lad and I took 4 years to get it on the road.
Did the boss give you the green light yet?
