Re: Rcr Mk11 #38

As it is over 2 months since the last update I thought it would be worthwhile just giving some notes on the progress. A lot of work has been done by Nick on the car bodywork, especially recently on the internal ducting to the front and rear clips. The decision was evntually taken to cut out the MK1 internals that RCR fitted to the rear clip and start fabricating inner panels and ducting closer to what would have been fitted into a Mk11. This is still work in progress in the pictures below with the brake cooling ducts and wheelarch still to be fitted.

On the front clip the front ducts have been fabricated and ducting for the NACA ducts has been added which will eventually mate up with ducts on the top of the chassis infront of the windscreen, to allow a switchable supply of cool air into the cockpit.

The hinged spare wheel cover has been fitted using the Mk1 Mini door hinges as used by others.
