How to Build a Cyclecar. A reprint from the Original 1913 book.

A wonderful period book from a time when the motorcar was in its infancy and amateur builders wanted to have a go at building a their own Cyclecar. Companies soon grew up around the industry providing all the parts a budding cyclecariste would need to build his own car. The Cyclecar magazine provided a weekly fix and the printers produced a number of books, most famously; "How to build a Cyclecar".

Starting with the construction of the workbench needed, the book then goes on to describe the methods and ideas on how to build and simple two seater or mono cyclecar. Lots of period advert from suppliers of components and makers are dispersed within the book. 

If you have a love of ancient motorcars, primitive early transport or just would like a fun read, then this little book will provide you with dreams of 'How to Build a Cyclecar. 

Originally reproduced a number of years ago in a much smaller digital format, this little book has now been re-mastered to match the size of the original as well as in lithographic print on almost identical paper to that of the 1913 publication by Temple Press. 

100 pages. 170mm x 120mm x 10mm
