I have been asked to design and make an updated version of the Classic Lotus 7 Bodywork.
The brief is Fully Enclosed Front Wings - Aggressive Styling - Still resemble the Lotus 7
I have been making a 1-10th scale model form foam and body filler. This is what we have so far.

Would love to see this progress! You wouldn't need an assistant in the Carbon Copies workshop would you?
Where about's are you? The workshop got flooded
last week so things are a bit of a mess at the moment but should be sorted by the end of this week. You are welcome to come over and have a look after that if you fancy it.
