About
Who Are We?
The Sports Car Builders Club of Western Australia (Inc) is a group of Western Australian enthusiasts with a common interest in building light sports cars. Most of our members are currently building variations on the “Lotus 7” clubman theme such as Locosts, Westfields, Leitches and Frasers.
Club Aims
The Sportscar Builders Club of W.A. provides a forum for Locost and other kit car builders in Western Australia to discuss ideas, assist members through their builds, and to ensure the local regulatory requirements are understood and implemented fairly and uniformly.
- Assist kit and custom vehicle builders (whether Locost, Leitch, Westfield, PRB etc) by documenting and sharing information amongst members.
- Ensure that the requirements imposed by the Vehicle safety Branch and authorised signatories (engineers) are implemented uniformly and fairly to sports car builders of Locosts in Western Australia.
- Seek out discounts, or methods of saving money for club members
- Promoting the building of kit cars, and the benefits of membership of our group.
- Have fun! (well isn’t that the idea in the first place?)
Meetings
We meet on the first Thursday of every month at the offices of Fibreglass & Resin Sales at the rear of 111 Kew Street, Welshpool. Meetings are open to non members. Please bring a gold coin donation for the tea/coffee & biscuits fund.

Nice job Doug,are you going to have a forum. Cheers Ray
12 Clubmans turned up Sunday for a drive to Serpentine Dam and the mandatory coffee shop stop, the weather gods finally smiled with the exception of a few drops of rain just before we reached the motoplex.
One very interesting car was an early Bugatti race car which its 80 plus owner driver hurled down the 1/4 mile in under 20 seconds (this car is reportedly the last of its type in the world and worth big $$$$$$$) so it would appear that there should be life in the club members old blokes yet.
Cheers Ray
