The other thing I've looked into is extending the back of the roof out just a little bit... Sorta like taking a lip spoiler off of a hatchback and filling in some of the drop off area behind my roof. Thoughts?
Punchanello,go to GOOGLE IMAGES and do a search for the car above in the caption box.
This Lotus is a pretty good fit under the Template and scores Cd 0.29,not bad for 1967!
I would follow Collin Chapman's lead here.
