That would require a functioning car - which would be a lot more work. If I can at least test the aero, I could make molds and new body panels that could be used on a much more conventionally built chassis. And possibly get to a working car with less time / money / effort.
Another way to go, that I have been thinking about, is to build a new prototype with the method used for the Trev:

Which is a folded "box" of composite sandwich panels, with foam added on the outside. This is MUCH quicker and has much better 3D accuracy, and has structural strength built in.
