Allan do you do the minimesa side inlets or did it come like that from RCR. New Street tail configuration ?

Is that Peter's car? How does he plan to get in if the power fails?

 

[Jack]

Wayne's car. He opened up the side scoops himself, I believe there is a hidden method of opening. It's Gorgeous! Going to see him next week when he returns.

 

[Allan]

Gorgeous color Allan! What are the details on the paint?

It is a tri-stage white pearl. Extra time in the booth on that one.

I'd be more concerned with exiting. I'm sure Allen has installed a contingency exit method :thumbsup:.

There is an emergency power supply that plugs into a power outlet in the car that gives enough power to open the doors.

BTW the door acuator system was developed by Peter, who also has an actuators that open the rear clip. Very impressive work on his part.

Stunning Allan! :thumbsup:

Allan... forgot to ask. I noticed the upper and lower corners of the windows are still in place. I like the look. My guess is leaving that area in place would obstruct vision too much? Does the owner plan on removing that, or is it going to stay in place?

I think that I have found and posted almost every picture that exists on the internet of the Superlite Coupe (SLC), but I would love to be proved wrong!

Am I looking at this correct? Is the top intake thing just a complete fake? Or is there a purpose to it?

 

[Fran Hall RCR]

Its a part that was made in Australia..
I have never seen one in the flesh so cannot really say what is functional and what is "style"...

If I recall correctly its to help draw cooler air in from the roof scoop...

As Fran stated it is functional, directs air from roof scoop to engine intake. I think the reason it exists is that you are legally not allowed to have an exposed air filter on Australian road cars.
