I’ve been following Andy’s build with a great deal of admiration.



I’m hoping that he’ll let Kit Car publish his full story when the car’s complete.

I thought Graham meant kit cars aren't mainstream, not disputing KC's sales figures within that niche market.

But it's a bit of a mouthful to say "a mainstream magazine for cars made from kits" to avoid saying "kit car magazine" - silly name for a kit car mag, tis "kit car mag" hehe

Er - that's kit car mag with small k and small c.

As we all know, kit cars are hardly mainstream. And as we also all know, most mainstream car magazine types don't give the industry the credit or recognition it deserves.
