Nowadays, you don’t need to spend a fortune to solve your midlife crisis. Ron Champion’s lovely classic design and his slogan “Build your own sports car for only £250” have already led many club members into the fun of building their own sports cars. This low-cost sports car is only slightly more complex than a traditional children’s car, assembled entirely from second-hand parts, along with some raw materials (steel bars, aluminum sheets), using welding techniques. Of course, you’ll also need an old car. Adam Stipefield-Jones, a member of the UK Low-Cost Car Club, says: “At the very least, you need an engine, a gearbox, and a car rear axle that can still be used (a set of detachable car rear axle components will also do)—this completes the other components.” The chassis of the sports car is basically built according to Champion’s design drawing. Even with just a quick glance at the pictures posted on enthusiast websites, you can tell these enthusiasts have designed different cars. Some have designed road cars for countryside cruising, while others focus on race cars. All the cars are labors of love. In fact, the trend of building such homemade sports cars was already popular as early as 1999 when the Low-Cost Car Formula Race was established. At that time, 750 motor clubs participated, with strict car-building rules to ensure that the winners did not win just because they spent a lot of money. The main purpose of the organizers was actually to encourage more young drivers and car-making enthusiasts. The entry conditions also stated that the participating cars were to be submitted by colleges, organizations, and individuals with less financial ability.
