Make Your Own MAX The plans and links and parts you need to build your own. (Latest update April 11, 2013) photo by Royce McCornack, courtesy of Mother Earth News Here’s the scoop on making your own low budget high mileage sports car. My own example (MAX, shown above) gets 100 mpg at 55 on the highway and cost me less than ten grand, which ain't bad for off-the-shelf technology. Photo by Doug Snodgrass, courtesy of Mother Earth News We've classed it up a bit with a new molded body, with a ragtop on the roof and no duct tape on the nose, but it's the same old MAX under the skin, now with over 100,000 miles of test driving to its credit.so yeah, we're pretty comfortable we've got the bugs worked out of it. Other than body, powerplant, and donor car, MAX is an ordinary Locost—not that there’s really any such thing as an “ordinary” Locost.

Download the drawings from the links above in PDF format and.However, Amazon.com, which buys books lots cheaper than we can, often. Cute name selected by Ron Champion, whose book Build Your Own Sports Car for.
The chassis follows the original dimensions set down by Ron Champion, who wrote Build Your Own Sports Car for as Little as £250 and started a movement. The Locost (so named because it’s low cost, and because the author’s obvious inspiration was the Lotus Seven) is a DIY car built from a Ford Cortina, which was a small sedan littering Great Britain’s wrecking yards at the turn of the century. Locost have been built by the thousands, and the builders range from high school students looking for a shop project, to guys my age who’ve hankered for a Lotus Seven for the last 50 years. Cortinas have never been popular in the US, and so most American “by the book” Locosts have been built from early ’80s Toyota Corollas, from back in the days when Corollas were rear wheel drive. They’re still out there—the Corolla was once America’s most popular car—and they’re pretty cheap nowadays because the running gear was much more robust than the bodies. So if you want to build yourself a car that’s just like MAX (By the way, after considerable deep thought and discussion and a couple of mind-changes, we’ve decided the full model name for this type of car is: the Kinetic Mk1 MAX, or just plain MAX for short. I was hogging the name for a while, saying mine was The One and Only MAX, but I got outvoted by public opinion.
So MAX it is, and we threw in the Kinetic because we're strongly considering making a kit for folks who don't want to weld and it'll be under the Kinetic brand. And it's the Mark 1 because hey, we're not done making cool cars.) you’ll need to get your hands on a RWD Toyota Corolla with manual transmission, and a copy of Champion’s “Build Your Own Sports Car” book. The only difficulty with the book is, in the time since the MAX project started, Ron Champion’s book has gone out of print. There are still lots of copies going around, but unlike the Toyota, the books have gained value. Again, they’re not scarce, but they’re popular, so expect to pay more than their initial list price of $33.95. I bought a copy (Used - Like New) off of Amazon.com in July '12 for $50 plus $3.99 shipping, and there was another copy there (Used - Good) for $55.80 with shipping included, so don’t be stickershocked when you google it and find copies for sale for $600. Sixty dollars is reasonable (though you can probably beat that with a few minutes on the internet), six hundred dollars is not, and the reason those $600 ads stay posted for years is because nobody buys them at that price.
When that book went out of print, a number of folks ran them through a scanner and posted free copies on the ’net in pdf form, but I prefer the actual book myself. If you’re experienced and daring, you might go ahead and skip the book. Jim McSorley offers excellent (better than the book, in fact) free chassis plans for the Locost on his, Just go to Jim's page (it's the third menu item on the right of his main page, just below the pic of the miniature red sports car) and click. He also has free plans for slightly larger versions, for people using larger engines (and for larger people as well), such as the McSorley +442, which is 4” longer, 4” wider, and 2” taller than a “book” chassis. Another common resource for how-to instructions is the successor to Champion’s book; Build Your Own Sports Car: On a Budget by Chris Gibbs, available today on Amazon for $22.27, which gives plans for an updated version of the Locost (they call it the Haynes Roadster) with independent rear suspension and a 2” wider chassis. If you base your build on this book, your car won’t be Just Like MAX and you’ll need to tweak the chassis a bit and adapt some different parts (for example, that 2” makes the chassis too wide to fit the Corolla rear axle), but it’s an intriguing alternative, and one of our beta-testers is building a Haynes-based MAX with a Mustang II axle. The obvious advantage (along with the advantage of the book being in print and available at your favorite bookstore) is it gives another inch of cockpit space to both the driver and the passenger, and if the extra width drops fuel economy from say 100 mpg down to 98 mpg, that works out to one extra gallon of fuel every 5000 miles so I think you can live with it.
