WOA! I wasn't expecting THAT! Really cool idea going with the mid engine. Could we see a profile shot? Those scoops use up a lot of real estate on the side of that car. I did forget to ask: Now that the Cordvette is mid engine, Are the fender vents functional or just a style feature?

couldnt you just combine the cord and vette chassis/interior to fit it properlyish? sorry im not exactly the best with this stuff i just recently started my first build where i majory modify the body.

It's a little more involved, because of the body mods, everything else has to be modified... :)

FIREWALL!!!

I started by drawing the Firewall Mounting Line, then I drew a Rear Window Line above the Firewall.

Next I glued in a strip of plastic for the Window Frame and 2 pieces of plastic for Firewall Mounts...

I cut out the Firewall from sheet plastic.

THE UNDERSIDE!!!!

I traced the shape of the open area and cut out a piece of .080 Sheet Plastic for the Belly Pan...

Next I cut a piece of plastic to cover the open area between the Front Fenders.

Thanks Eric!

The vents are meant to represent functional vents.

The intakes for the engine are a nice touch. This thing gets better with each update.

Thanks for the kind words David, Glad you like it!

Excellent job :) your work impresses every time. Just one question. How did you trace the shape and over what?

Thanks Wilbert!

I traced the shape of the opening in the underside of the body to make a Belly Pan... B)
