No idea but you have to say that that is a pretty good looking car especially considering the starting point!

He's made a nice job of that.
He says that he was going to take moulds and use them to make the grp, but I don't see any evidence in the pictures of what he's done.

Its filler over glass and resin over foam. He will probably sand and paint it as a buck. He says he will make a negative, then a positive. I take this
to mean he will make a mould (negative) from the buck and then make a bodyshell (positive) from the mould.

Nice work on the Dutton body, but I really rather like this
(possible SVA issues though )

The foam is PU (Polyurethane) not polystyrene.
