Tallest part of the car is right above drivers head (aren't they all?). Behind the driver is 6 feet.
What is drop in car of the first 2 feet behind driver's head? Next 2 feet? Final 2 feet?
I want to do the sides also. Widest part of the car is at the driver's elbows (aren't they all?). which is 40 inches wide. Need the same numbers.

If someone hasn't beat me to the punch by Saturday,I'll try and have you numbers.
You can print off the Aerodynamic Streamlining Template at a convenient scale,then using 45" as your height at the point of max body camber,pick off your elevations at your 2-ft increments.
If your plan taper is beginning at the same 45" position,then you can do identical taper on the sides as on the roof.
If you want to see an example,do a GOOGLE search for the James Bede-designed,'Litestar,'100-mpg,outrigger motorcycle streamliner,circa 1982.
