Here's the original image.

One posted above was something I cropped to 600 width to conform to all the pics on this site.

The fins are two pieces one going into the wheel well and the other side forms the trunk area. The rear deck lid is also two pieces.
No; I don’t have a web sight, and probably never will Justin gets my pictures to post.

Yes, I know it's two pieces. What I'm asking is when you bolt them together how do you lay it up? It's much to narrow and deep.

Hey Justin, do you know if PS still does it in individual pieces like that?

No, that was just a one time thing due to time limitations. You get what you can when you are in a hurry. The person who now has those molds is doing them in one piece. And like other builders out there, he is not offering gun doors or other trim pieces, to my knowledge. I will verify that, however.

If you have time, could you make one from the side view?

Tim, have you posted your technical drawings on your site yet? I mean, all the ones you have done? I have an idea for one - do a semi-transparent Batmobile showing where the steel subframe would be built and glassed into the shell for support, and mark the mounting points. Collaborate with Jack and see where he is doing his. I will check out some others. If you do not find time for this, I eventually will. I am just really busy with screen printing these days!

Yes, Jack has been hounding me for that one too. I did start to model the underbody, (firewall, floor, tranny tunnel, trunk, etc) but that was as far as I got. It's pretty time consuming.
