Appears someone has pulled a mold off a plug they made,spreading the affliction. "It looked flat on the drawing",a disconnect of 3D perception,or maybe he subscribes to the barn door school of aeronautics,a mimic of something he saw and built his version of it. Pretty sure this is the same frp kit panels as above,modified to a better result,the basis of a decent transformation. I'm guessing an actual bodyman had a go at the conglomeration and created a pleasing shape. Anycar,just happened to start with a 914,a vast improvement in drag reduction,if you disregard the cage. Got some kind of thing on the ball,a passing glance at a '66 LeMans car,ah ha,"pointy"! A large wheelbase stretch,front and rear,probably some decent power. Getting closer,it's got to be smooth,with little interruption of continuity,so the cage negates any and all advantage. |
