I dunno, I kind of liked the red. But the bodywork job looks very nice.

Our solution to the problem was to make a former out of hardwood to take the square section to round and then used it to bend a piece of aluminium,
which was then trimmed to shape.

just wondering but why are the two panels designed like that if they arent going to fit flush together?
We gain knowledge faster than we do wisdom!
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in
sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip!"

"Interesting" design features are a common thread in all these cars. If you stop and think about all the reasons building one of these is
completely insane, you won't do it, you'll just end up spending all your money on drinking, trying to get your head around it...
I am sure the Lotus itself has a few odd ideas built into it, but I've never looked closely enough.
