    As above, glad to see this moving again!
    I think it was Tony's monster of a project I saw on another thread - was it a V8 twin turbo or something in an old ford? He finished that now?

    That will be his riff chopped mk2 cortina. He's not finished it yet but it's certainly getting there. Very talented at what he does.

    If you keep some of that gap in the back of the wide front arches you can reduce the drag & add some downforce.
