..so again I had time for the car. Firstly I did some cutting to complete few welds, but also you'll see air duct for the IC radiator and rear brakes, as well as body needs to be widen couple of centimeters:

Cut, create, copy, paste.. That's how a sheetmetal version of the widebody is done. Shy version of the Group5 cars..
Still a lot to do.

Tack så mycket smile

One side ready, one to do. Air duct for the radiator with 180mm hose connection and 76mm for the brakes. Not the easiest thing to do out of sheet metal, but I'm pretty happy with the result smile

Bra att ni gillar smile

Last week we took our gas turbine bike to Finnish motorcycle exhibition and we got the OpenClass 2nd price smile Not bad for a first-timer?

This week I continued building my car, naturally... Passenger side needed an air duct too, which became as good as the other side. Here you can see the boxed subframe reinforcements:

A-pillars got reinforcements too with dimpled holes:

Aluminium bits, these should keep feet still and reduce the heat radiated from the gearbox or exhaust:

Driver fits and driving position is somewhat cozy and roomy, I like:

Time for the dashboard. I modified the orginal model a little bit, photoshopped how it should look like when finished and today I started to create the mold.

Sketch:

Model covered with aluminium tape and wax:

Gelcoat layer:

Fiberglass:

And couple of foam reinforcements:

Thanks!

Getting there.. I'm pretty happy with the mold as it's my first big fiberglass project smile Just a little bit sanding and filler into the worst spots. Also started to make foam models for the insets:

Dashboard project continues..

I finished the mold yesterday, surface wasn't perfect but good enough as the final product goes to flocking:

Then a thick layer of gelcoat into the mold:

One layer of chopped type fiberglass and one layer of braid type as reinforcement:

Getting there.. Gelcoat had melted the paint which made the surface look strange big_smile But the result otherwise is decent, little bit of sanding and grinding.. Weight was 3kg.

Almost every part in this picture is already fitted, but the list of the other tasks seems endless... By the end of spring I want to drop it on it's wheels with finished bodykit! cool
