Hi Paul, Cheers for your comment! I have never indulged so much time on a car of mine. You are right concerning your observation in that I was after a classic racer used and raw. I will leave the aluminium to weather in its natural state and to look as if it has just completed a race from the 50s. Also the weight will be much less as the amount of filer I used to mock up the bulbous body cost me loads. The cost for the aluminium is around 400 pound which is reasonable the tools some I made my own the visible evidence of aluminium building came from watching you tube ! I am starting my next project when my Cordite is finished using a GT6 chassis and running gear more of a Riley racer .
