INTRODUCTION
1 It is recommended that the entire
assembly guide is read before commencing
building of the car. This will allow planning
ahead for the procurement of tools,
consumables and equipment required during the
build process.
2 Many of the build processes can be
undertaken simultaneously although the
assembly guide has been constructed in a
sequential order.
3 The chassis and packages supplied have
been engineered to enable an engine from the
Rover K-Series range to be installed in
conjunction with either a Ford Type 9 close ratio
5-speed or Caterham 6-speed gearbox. A Ford
Sierra differential is utilised. There are several
different versions of these engines, gearboxes
and differentials available. If you have not
purchased your entire kit from Caterham you
should ensure that you source the correct parts
by calling Caterham for further information.
CONTACT INFORMATION
4 Contact information for the various
Departments of Caterham is detailed in Table 1.
5 Ensure that you make a note of your sales
order number (top right hand side of invoice)
and your customer number as these are the
references by which we know you and your kit
and will ensure that, no matter how long you
take to assemble your car, subsequent
packages will be compatible.
PART RECOGNITION/SHORTAGES
6 The kit provided by Caterham Cars (from
the factory at Dartford) includes all the items
required to build the car. However, due to the
sheer number of different components it is
possible that some parts are omitted or
duplicated. Kits should be checked to ensure all
components (including contents of fastener
packs) are present prior to starting construction.
If there are any shortages contact the Customer
Liaison Department at the factory.
TECHNICAL HELP
7 Caterham Cars will happily provide
technical assistance when required. When in
doubt, ask. For technical assistance contact
the Caterham Cars Technical Helpline.
