   Subject: [locost] Shop manuals, mostly British,


     First sorry for the cross post, but it's a wide variety of books.

   All are in usable condition, some are near new others are showing use
   and age. If you want more info or a pic of the condition of a
   particular book just left me know.
   I'm open to offers on all books. I have no idea of the value, the
   haynes books are only 20bux ish new. The Factory, Chiltons pro, or
   Mitchell books go for much more when new. Make me an offer based on
   what it's worth to you, factor shipping from V2S 4Z3 Abbotsford BC
   (locals can pick up obviously). Buyer pays actually shipping via Canada post.
   I'm also interested in trades. My list of toys is in my sig to see
   what I'm into.
   By the end of this I want to own this book by Keith Tanner.

I'm in the United States. I live in Tacoma which is just south of Seattle
Washington.

There is a Caterham club in the area that does track days. My garage isn't
hospitable enough to use as a workshop in the winter since it's not heated or
insulated so I can use the winter to plan and hopefully build during the spring
and summer.

Pat:

A alternative would be to take the Locost to Alberta or BC, and stay there.

Dave:

If nothing else, I have a great collection of parts.  I have a 4AGE, a 4AC,
and a MG Midget motor, with transmissions,  a nosecone, 4 fenders, a gas
tank, a pile of aluminum sheet, boxes of rivets, several sets of uprights
and brakes, several sets of wheels, lights, instruments, etc,. etc.

A bit more steel and I could start on a second unfinished project.

David:


Is your Locost build finished ?  Mine has been on hold.  I was totally
demoralozed by Sask Government Insurance stating that they will not register
it.  I thought I would get back at it, registration or not.

I'm not going to debate whether it's OT or not, but there's many a slip between
a bill draft and a law. I can't imagine this will ever get out of committee and
if it did there are grave consitutional concerns about its invasion of privacy.
See Doe v. Wade. Nevertheless, I can see the contributor's concern that this may
add just one more restriction on homebuilt vehicles. I note that my new Kia is
keeping track of my average speed.....

Please clip your messwages, thanks.

While this may be of interest to some members in NA, I can't see WHAT this has
to do with Locost?? Whose aim is:

Description:
A forum primarily for discussion and help on the building of a Locost sports

Hello all.  I wrote about this earlier.  Legislation like this can become a huge
tax increase plus point to point tracking can result in speeding tickets. We
would be mandated to install a tracking GPS, that would be extremely expensive
due to being a special devise.   This administration is determined to add taxes
and a large measure of control to almost every aspect of our lives.  I believe
the time is now to write to your legislator to oppose this added tax

Federal Proposal Would Spend $154 Million on Vehicle Tracking Tax

Posted: 9-14-09
      A Member of Congress proposes to use taxpayer money to fund the development
of technology to track motorists as part of a new form of taxation. US
Representative Earl Blumenauer (D-Oregon) introduced House Resolution 3311
earlier this year to appropriate $154,500,000 for research and study into the
transition to a per-mile vehicle tax system.

     H. R.3311 or the "Road User Fee Pilot Project" would be administered by the
US Treasury Department. This agency in turn would issue millions in
taxpayer-backed grants to well-connected commercial manufacturers of tolling
equipment to help develop the required technology. Within eighteen months of the
measure's passage, the department would file an initial report outlining the
best methods for adopting the new federal transportation tax.

      "Oregon has successfully tested a Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) fee, and it
is time to expand and test the VMT program across the country," Blumenauer said
in a statement on the bill's introduction. "A VMT system can better assess fees
based on use of our roads and bridges, as well as during times of peak
congestion, than a fee based on fuel consumption. It is time to get creative and
find smart ways to rebuild and renew America's deteriorating infrastructure."

      In 2006, the Oregon Department of Transportation completed its own study of
how to collect revenue from motorists with a new form of tax that, like the
existing fuel excise tax, imposes a greater charge on drivers the more that they
drive. The pilot project's final report summed up the need for a VMT tax.

      "Unfortunately, there is a growing perception among members of the public
and legislators that fuel taxes have little to do with road programs and
therefore should be considered 'just another form of taxation,'" the March 2006
report stated. "By itself, this situation appears to be preventing any increases
in fuel tax rates from being put into effect."

      The money diverted from the fuel excise tax on non-road related projects
must be made up for with a brand new VMT tax, the report argued. Merely indexing
the gas tax to inflation or improvements in fleet gas mileage was rejected as
"imprecise." Instead, the report urged a mandate for all drivers to install GPS
tracking devices that would report driving habits to roadside Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID) scanning devices.

      Blumenauer is a long-time advocate of bicycling and mass transit in
Congress. Many of his largest campaign donors stand to benefit from his newly
introduced legislation. Honeywell International, for example, is a major
manufacturer RFID equipment. The company also happens to be the second biggest
contributor in the current cycle to Blumenauer's Political Action Committee
(PAC), the Committee for a Livable Future. Another top-ten donor, Accenture, is
a specialist in the video tolling field.

      H.R. 3311 awaits a hearing in the House Ways and Means Committee. A copy of
the bill is available in a 170k PDF file at the source link below. Source

Gidday,
Good looking unit, nice to see a variation.
The front suspension looks interesting ??????
And what engine did you use ?

   I have been on this list a while ago and perhaps some of you will be
interested to see what my build finally looks like. It is a longer than book
version with side fairings, exhaust in the transmission tunnel, turbodiesel,
with quarter eliptical leaf springs and airsprings. The key feature however is
that I have welded everything frame and panels.
