Newbie In Need Of Help!

Hi.

Im 16, been looking at the forum for a little while, just rescued a Banham X 21 from a local scrap yard. Do all of them come with a dead rat on the passenger seat,

. Unfortunatly it is only half finished, with no build manual. If anyone could help me with this problem, it would be much appreciated! Planning to build it myself, and desperatly seeking any information.

Hi guys,
good to see some youngsters getting interested!

My advice, get yourselves along to one of the many kit car shows.(see this sites home page or Totalkitcar.com) You'll learn a lot looking at what other builders have done and you might meet up with someone who's finished one of those Banhams. They are also good places to get your tool kit together.

I've got loads of Kitcar magazines looking for a new home,if either of you are near West London as you'll have to come and collect.

They are not trading anymore. I did not know that. What a shame.

I would go to here:
http://www.the-x21.com/

And ask them for a manual here.
