The official Mk3b spyder has nothing in common with the RCR70 MK3b spyder.
We do took a Mk3b coupe nose and tail section.
We then modified one of our spyder dash panels.
The dash was widened to the width of the nose.
The nose was modified to mate with the dash.
The fenders/dash was then modified to have a flowing wheel arch.
The 3B tail section end cap was used and a spyder tail section.
The tail was widened to meet the width of the tail cap.
The rear flares on the spyder tail were widened to meet the width of the 3b tail cap and create the wheel arch contour.
The engine bay access hole in the tail was then sectioned and moved to fit .
This is a
very brief overview of what Brad, the RCR composite Guru did ..not including all of the details to make everything flow and look like a cohesive body.
We did not make moulds of this car as we never planned to put it into prodcution but I have had many many requests...but that does not mean sales and the cost of redoing this body and then tooling up RCR grade moulds is not inexpensive.....so this may well remain a true "one off"
as a sidebar,
I think this goes to prove that smaller companies like mine are capable of anything then famous TV Hotrod guys can do and us "KITCAR" companies should be given a little more respect for our determination to raise the bar in our industry and do it at a price the famous hot rod shops would cringe about.....stpe down from soapbox....
