paul, that looks great. i believe thats his own body design he has been working on. correct me if im wrong but i think he made his own molds and everything.

Thanks for the compliments guys but without the paint it looks like a PAS.
Kippy is correct, the nose,hood,and scoop are 1 molded piece that I formed on a homebuilt vacuumformer.

Very slick, that is something I wish I had to play with. I ran big vaccum former at my first job. I was doing the base plastics for jewelry cases and displays. Doing a body would be much more enjoyable. We just used bond to make the molds, that was it was easy to work with a repair.

Could you post dimensions? Especially the hood? I would love one but worried it might not fit the rules.

the body 6 7/8 wide.....hood is 2 7/16 wide at hood scoop. length from nose to back edge of body is 20 inches, 7 inches tall at spoiler on roof. the nose is 3 3/4 wide. when mounted on my dd intimidator the front of the chassis and bumper stick out in front of the nose about 3/8 inch. should be legal from some of the rules i have read.

Looks really nice. But if you do decide to race it, I would be afraid of ruining the nose, and then the whole interior would be junk.

ive been racing mine at coopers and been fine. we put seperate end plates on the sides of the nose, they seem to take all the punishment. the interior is a seperate peice that is bolted to the hood/nose
