Hi CD
Yep it is a work in progress. Progress has been delayed by the lack of materials and time for designing . Your idea sounds good. I want to be able to see out back. If this small air foil works I might just make a true hatch back using some 3/4" square steel tubing, that won't happen sooner than next year.
I don't see any underbody work happening. The car is driven on both gravel and dirt roads. I have worked on front wheel skirts somewhat like arcosine's Hinged at the top and using bungies to hold them closed. My initial attempt was taped on without hinges or bungies, it failed when the tape gave up its stickem. The wheel flares just beg for some covers. With no instrumentation It takes a couple of tanks of fuel to see results. I refuse to go out on test drives and coast downs.
