Unless some really credible company (which I can show in court after getting fined) can make affordable glass tops and for it to be tinted right in hot spots... Im thinking of scrapping the idea.



The owner and man that inspired the Ferrari P4/5 is planning to make another retro modern car, and that inspired me to make the following

The roof has a fuselage like design like the original

It would be great to use an Enzo windshield or source what the P4/5 uses but that will be hard and expensive to get.


So now Im thinking of further extending the Lotus windshield forward and even stretching (not done yet in the picture) the Porsche donor chassis.

I hope I did the aero overlay right.
