ya be much more better off getting all the tools and a garage of your own first then think about building or buying one at least you will have your own set up and will be able to maintain it and not rely on others

and maybe if you build one get some kind of sponser i.e some kind of engineering place.to sponser you some steel but if i was you i would get a new one

usually best to buy a reasonably good car and learn from it,then maybe look at building one.
theres alot of work involved in building one and if you get it wrong you will have a heap of trouble
with handling etc.but if you kno wot you doin its all good.iI've just cut the front off mine to change and lighten it a little and its no easy task.

I agree Evil, Iam in my first season and already racing is expensive and to build a car from scratch would be way way way over my budget, what if you build the car say over 10 months spend all that time and all that money on it, have one race in it and decide that stockcars arnt for you?!

I have started with my dad's old flatty and its something for me to learn in ive spent $2000 on it not to mention repairs and racing costs each week, I was lucky the car was there for me to race basically had to update it a little and build a new roof plate along with new bits and pieces for the car.

Agree with evil mate would be better off just buying a car or finding one to lease and go from there have a season to learn about it and go from there

Believe me, it is worth buying first off, than building. Im building at the moment, and mine came as a rolling chassis. Talk bout alot of work!

also are you on macgors under a different name as someone is asking the same questions on there also.
If you lived down this way we may have been able to help out with a loan car, possibly one of mine even, cos if i cant get the super goin im gonna pull it down and turn it into a stockcar and hope to contract both cars out of wanganui next season. The spacey will be teams raced and the flatty will be used for championships etc so would of been spare at times for someone to pilot as i can only drive one car at a time lol...........
