The lid has started to go on:





I've got a plan for how I'm going to make it weather-proof so I can carpet the inside and have a nice trunk. The lower opening will be the trunk lid, and the upper is for a 30W solar panel I've had for a while and planned on putting on the car, just had nowhere to put it. That will keep my 12V battery topped off.

I'm planning to finish this in the next two months; I've got a road trip to New York in April (and possibly the Green Grand Prix), and I expect we'll have some good weather before then to fiberglass it. I have to get this thing out of the kitchen eventually!
