Re: Look What This Guy DID!!
Design is about thinking outside the box. Anyone who can do that and fabricate it has my respect.

Re: The Custom Wheel!

This is how I was able to achieve what I did with my car. What this guy did is an achievement over here. It is the first car that was mostly fabbed in Leb. I don't want to critisize the fiberglass works that was done, the accuracy, the way of work done, and the amount of bondo used... but if it was I doing that project, I would have at least, done the model entirely out of CLAY first. Then used plaster to take molds out of it, then the final FG phase... I wish I can have some schematics on a previously done similar chassis, suspension used and mechanics install know-how. That outer design I am pretty sure I can also do fairly easy, beautiful and more accurate...

Re: Look What This Guy DID!!
This is alll the wrong way to do a custom fabbed car. Either you should have the machinery and equipment to fold metal sheets the way you like and start the welding process, or you should use CLAY for a preliminary shape then take from it the "lightweight" parts through a mold.

I 'dupped' a copy of a fender once when someone at work took the l rear fender off the duelie! I waxed the right one and made a 'single use' mold, pulled one and repaired the other side.

If you have $$, the foam can be cut by a giant CNC machine, but not often is that the case for most in the one-off custom car type world. There are some other ones out there too. This one has an excellent step by step explanation & pictures: http://www.desicodesign.com/meerkat/Bodywork%201.htm

Re: Look What This Guy DID!!
I think he's speaking more of the lithuanian guy making the car with the obnoxious proportions...And yes, he just foamed and filled everything. I dont like a single thing about that car's design and build
The original post, however...Sweetness. Still wanna know what kinda motor hes got in that thing
