Re: MDA Mk1 with Gulf Arches - Martin P

Next mini project is a roof vent in the style of the Gulf Cars. I started by making the vent cover in aluminium, then cut out the holes in the body. I made a plenum from aluminium to go between the two skins of the spider, then glassed it in along with the vent cover. It's not finished yet but i'm pleased with progress so far. I intend to make another plenum for inside the car with a water trap and drain. I'll post pics when it's done.
