GRP Rear Panels
What am I like? Got my re-test on Saturday and already I'm looking to make changes to the car
Does anyone know if there are GRP rear panels for the McSorley +442? I did think about a standard Locost one and widening it and making it higher to
fit my car. I used an MK Scuttle and widened it by 4" to accomodate the wider chassis and it worked fine, but not sure about such a large area
like the rear panel.
I used thin aluminium the same stuff I did the sides in and it's tatty to say the least, and I think it lets the car down so want to change it.
If need be, then I will use thicker ally.
Thanks in advance.
It looks like the Midget is winning at the moment......

The GTS W7DE was 4" wider than the Locost chassis and i believe most of the gts bodywork was made by http://www.equinoxproducts.co.uk/

I made my rear panel out of 3 sheets of ally: the middle one was much narrower, rivetted and sikaflexed on to the other parts. Turned out great, if I
do say so myself.
