I recently bought a 1977 Caterham, which is fitted with a Lotus twin cam, Ford live axle and 2821E box.



I could do with an appropriate build manual as I intend to strip and rebuild the car.

I have already downloaded the current build manual that is available on the Caterham site, but I'm really looking for something that it a bit more appropriate for my old car.

Does anyone have one that they are prepared to sell?

Or in the alternative, lend to me for a few days so that I can copy it. Clearly I would pay for the p&p and some beer money if anyone can help.

I would recommend the Tony Weale book Restoration/Preparation/Maintenance. I realise it's not a build manual but it has very good information in it .

I agree with the book recommendation as I said in your other thread, I have assembly manuals but the earliest is 1998 and a bit late for you although the basics would be covered.

It should be said that the ass. manuals are not really that great but they do cover pretty much everything.

If you want to borrow one, as long as I have your word it will be returned I guess I could stick one in the post for you to copy?

Let me know
