It hailed from the granddaughter of the late Malcolm \u2018Mac\u2019 Tompson, who painstakingly documented every stage of his Mirage Lamborghini Countach replica.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Entitled \u2018Building A Kit Car &#8211; Dream or Nightmare\u2019? Mac also discussed the joys and nightmares he experienced during the process. It\u2019s a very nice guide for anyone taking on such a build and some of the tips are universal and not just confined to a Countach.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I really like it because as I said it\u2019s charming and honest. Unfortunately, Mac died before he could get the book published but in a lovely tribute to him, his family have seen it through to completion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The book doesn\u2019t have an ISBN number so natural avenues to market aren\u2019t open to the book without such a number, so Mac\u2019s granddaughter, Amy is offering them for direct sale at just \u00a311 inc P&amp;P.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The easiest way is to buy it from eBay which you can do by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ebay.co.uk\/itm\/204926126472?_nkw=building+a+kitcar+dream+or+nightmare&amp;itmmeta=01J5985X28P5P9PW0KJY4W858N&amp;hash=item2fb68c8988:g:tgEAAOSwUChmskXY&amp;itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA4HoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKlGVuxxd431joEOOcxHs3vopy8ptdGXHilc2kCEP2DaCtcNNAwaMjM4Y\"><strong><u><b>CLICKING HERE<\/b><\/u><\/strong><\/a><strong><b>.<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A smashing book that will be a great addition to your collection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>When this charming book landed on my desk the other day it raised a smile.
