brillient project, im doing roughly similer to you without the engine and with a more people friendly outlook, eg has some but little sound proofing, some carpets and rear seats. however carbon everything else....apart from roof as my roll cage isent weld in so it wont stiffen the shell well.

ally doors, slidey poly windows , holes in pretty much everything non structural obviously the internal panels only.

[andywaller]

[andywaller]

oh, i threw a fit, a full on wobly, i was not best please but onwards and upwards, at least i know that area is solid.

nice parcel shelf, can i thieve your idea? where did you get the sheeting from if you dont mind me asking?

[andywaller]

rod took quite a while to get it perfect.

i had to make a template, mark out the carbon, cut excess off with a fine jig saw blade and then about an hour and a half of itchy sanding by hand.


oh its not just sheet its a proper curley carbon item, sheet would not be thick enough when i cut the shelf away.

Looks absolutely spot on Andy. Cant wait to see it finished!

[andywaller]

cheers tom, cant wait either!
