    Does my wing make butt look smaller?

    Bodywork not there yet but it's time to test the rest then back to get it right;)
    The wing is attached to the chassis through the back window using 4130 aero tubing from aircraft facility. Every little bit counts right?

    Good Lord! A tip of the hat to the Northrop B-49. Hang a JATO bottle on that thing and you might just achieve low earth orbit. :biggrin5: That is one fine lookin' wing! Can't wait to see the finished product.:Thumbsup:

    Nice work Jan. :Thumbsup:

    This is really how a MINI RACECAR is built the right way.

    I bet this one does not turn out to be a coffee table. :lol:

    Golly, Jan, this project looks expensive. I bet it's setting you back like $18k!
