    Hi guys, I'm new here so forgive me if you have seen this before.

    Planning on building my first kit car but can't find much information about the legal aspects of it in Ireland.

    Wanted to become a member of a club in order to learn more.

    I've been looking up ikcc but didn't find much to about the club. Is it still running?

    From what I know, they were at the Irish Classic motor show in Terenure last year and were looking to be there again this year but that obviously could be out the window. They seem to have fallen off the face of the earth. I was like yourself, looking at building a car but honestly, the insurance is a nightmare. There was a workaround in the past but I don't want to get it wrong as it could be breaking rules about legal advice. If you search for Zebrano on here, he was trying to get IKCC going again so it would b worth shooting him a message

    Hi all, just to bring anyone who's interested up to speed, the IKCC is now back up and running. If anyone wants to join up, you can do so on the website (boards won't allow me to post links, currently but it's ikcc dot ie). Otherwise, feel free to drop me a PM on this.

    Looks like a small block Chevy.

    Interesting build, any more updates on this?

    On the subject of the IKCC, I recall a build called lexibug that was pretty cool.

    Did it ever get finished?
