The Build is back on, Slight set back with the Plywood (not what i ordered, but i can't wait 4 weeks for the right stuff to come in).
First stage of the Build is to make the Dummy engine houseing comprising of 2 bulkheads and 2 inner wings (valances), and MOD number 1, i've increased the height of the valances and bulkheads by 12mm /1/2", this is to make room to fit 2 17Ah batteries, for additional power or to run some onboard equipment.
Next was to cut out the floor enter MOD number 2, the standard length of a Mayfair is 44", width of plywood sheet 48".
The reason for the extra length is that i want to fit a luggage rack to the boot lid and to open the lid needs a little extra length. I've lengthened the boot by 2 1/2 " and the cockpit by 1 1/2"
Total build time so far 2 Hrs
MOD number 3, if you havent already guessed it, will be the body side panels, lengthened at either end by the measurements above.
I can't make up my mind at this point if i want to include a pair of doors, which will mean cutting the panels slightly differently.... Any thoughts on doors or not to door greatly appreciated
