About the Authors

This is a quick introduction to the sort of person who may or may not be suitable to construct their own car or even a website about it. People who can do both should find something more useful to do with their obvious talents, Politics for example, lets face it, we could do with some talent there!

1) The Builder (The one with the grubby hands)

Name: Glenn
Age: 34
Occupation: Logistics Communication Professional (Lorry Driver for Post Office, Royal Mail Letters, Consignia, Service Delivery, Logistics Contracts Division, Logistics Solutions)
Likes: Engines, Engineering, and people who have a go at things.
Dislikes: Fox Hunters, Property Developers, and "Experts" with a degree on one hand and no idea on the other.
Comments: Wanted to build a car whilst the EU hadn't quite yet managed to make such things impossible, enjoys the individuality of driving a car based on one of the most common production cars ever.

2) The Scribe (The one with the grubby mind)

Name: Ian
Age: 27
Occupation: IT Support Technical Project Leader (and that really is my job title!)
Likes: Re-Enactment, History, Archaeology, and of course, Gadgets and Computers
Dislikes: The lack of ADSL where I live(!) (Only 98 people registered to go!!). Norwich City Council for their traffic 'management' policies. People who ask stupid questions. (Why?)
Comments: Got conned into travelling up to Mansfield two years ago, wrote webpage about it, never looked back. Havent driven, but been for ride in car! (Still haven't presented bill to Glenn yet either!)
