SL-C cupholders

[Fran Hall RCR]

We have been busy for the last couple of months with designing/modelling/tooling the new interior panels.
Whilst I was away in the UK the guys pulled multiple parts from the moulds.
The parts shown are part of the upgraded interior packages that are to be available.

Nice, I may have to build one of those in the future. I want the roadster version though.

 

[Fran Hall RCR]

Thanks,

How is your "other" project coming along?.

The Le Mans is a "GO" so keep out number handy....

 

[Fran Hall RCR]

The dash pictured is the one supplied with all levels of interior package.....FYI

 

[Fran Hall RCR]

Whoops.
the black door inner is the standard finished surface...still a class A surface though.( even though its dusty)

 

[Rich A]

Fran,
How does the added interior door panel weight affect the door in the full open position?
Will it stay open?

 

[Jonathan Strain]

I just started on my other project today as a matter of fact. I got a little side tracked on a few other projects. I am thinking one to two years on this one. You should have the SLC and Le Mans pretty well sorted out by then. The way you are going you may have something even more tempting in the works by then.

Is there a ballpark price for the extra interior peices?

 

[Dan]

cup holders ?!?!

keeping the market as wide as possible

I do like the door panels.

Will you offer the deluxe interior minus the center console?

 

[Jack]

Again, a superlative job by Fran & guy's! Fantastic parts as usual!
Thanks Fran.

 

[Craig Gillingham]

cup holders and 600bhp wow.

In the testing i think the driver needs to brake hard down from 5th to 4th from 160mph to a 90mph corner, turn in and at apex reach over and take a swig from his mountain dew......now that would be cool on you tube.
hehehehe

^I love it!

Will those seat covers be available for the SL-R also?

 

[Dan]

Looking at the third picture seeing the seat's head rest appears to be behind the window's upwards cut. How big is the blind spot in this thing? Can you even see 180 degrees sitting with back in seat or do you have to lean forward? I'm 6' and always drive with the seat far back am I going to be able to see when I have to lane change in traffic? Anyone sat in the car and able to shed some light?

 

[Fran Hall RCR]

Thats what mirrors are for.....as there is no rear window in the bulkhead.

All cars of this type have compromises...GT40's included....you have t5o be careful when driving low,wide sportscars ....period...

If its a problem for you then a rear mounted camera is always an option...expecially as we have a nice new dash with a location to mount the screen.

 

[Dan]

I understand seeing backwards or anything beyond 180 is difficult. But I can turn my head, look side to my right and left and see the front of a cars hood if it is parralel with my view out of a reguler window. If I turn my head and look sideways sitting down am I going to see a car hood or just the "B-pillar"? Of course, when there is no beautiful blonde model in passenger seat. But that has a whole set of different issues. :thumbsup:

 

[Fran Hall RCR]

A back up camera is much cheaper than a blonde...

 

[Dan]

But not as fun!!! epper:

 

[Fran Hall RCR]

Depends what in your line of sight I guess....

 

[Peter Delaney]

Actually, those are not really cup-holders - they are mounts for oxygen bottles. Apparently QANTAS / Boeing has quite a few going cheap at the moment !!

Kind Regards,

Peter D.

Those are not cupholders, it's for 2 large brass balls.
