I recently finished a book entitled "Roadster: How and especially why a grown
man chose to build his own sports car" about a man who built himself a
Caterham Seven. (For those who don't know, a Caterham Seven is a kit-car and

own car; I keep myself in an apartment to prevent my filling a garage with
various and sundry auto parts for a project I have no hope of finishing. LEGO,
at least, takes up far less space.
