Aston inspired bodywork
chunkielad - 8/2/05 at 09:31 AM

Had a play with a pic of an Aston Martin from their site. I came up with this and I think I like it - any one have any design tips for me? I'm trying to get as many ideas as possible for my bodywork. I defo want to go the custom body route and need to end up with something different yet marketable.

Adding the pic would have been good! Rescued attachment New Car.jpg

Nice, but looking at the location of the passenger compartment, would this design not be more suitable for a middy?

Yes it is a middy mate - problem is it's a BEC middy so where do I put it? Here (bodywork) Middy section or BEC section?

Nice May fit on a fury menace chassis...

Well its the latest version of what I'm going to build. I want something different and this is a good mix (IMHO) between the seven bonet (actually not much different to the seven bonnet just wider and taller at the front) and an Aston (never a bad thing to look at!!!

I will be sorting the option of buying the body work seperately when I've finnished the car and you can see it in the flesh. It will not fi a book chassis but my car is BASED ON the McSorley 442. So anyone will be able to make a chassis to fit this on.
