Congratulations to Gaz on the car looking so good . Now that it is nearly finished i have had an idea for a mod . Would it be possible to standardize the car with flat rear deck . and make the humps separately so that they can be bonded or riveted on either singly or as a double . and might save time with modifying the mould every time to suit what each customer wants .
Its not a bad idea but would create a lot of extra work. At the moment we simply place a rounded insert into the mould to make a round arched car and leave it out to make a square arched car. Also for the humpless cars, the hump is blanked off in the mould which does leave a little scaring but this can be removed quite easily. I like the look of all of the cars being built at the moment and love to see the modifications people are making to there own builds. It also shows me that everybody has there own ideas and plans for what they want their car to look like which gives me a head ache when thinking about standardizing the kit as there isnt a "standard" G46.
Here is a few more pics of my car at Exeter that I havent shared yet
HM, no im not going on holiday just yet unfortunatley. I will try to get a side shot of the car on here as soon as possible. There was never a screen on the car, hopefully we can get one on there soon and get your perspex to you also, that will be a priority of mine this next week.
