Some photos attached of the PACE 427 body. These bodies have not been paint, the finish in the photos is the gelcoat finish as it comes from the mould. Note the mid-blue body has had some final polishing and detailing.

Body construction is a Carbon Composite construction. Hand laid, post cured in stages, vinylester resin standard.

Light-weight but strong, the main body shell weighs less than 60kg while still maintaining suitable thickness for street use.

This construction approach will also yield a straight and high quality finish long term.

We do a even lighter weight, higher quality epoxy body as an option.

Body is removable for ease of build.

Doors are laid up with a combination of Carbon and Kevlar for additional strength, shear resistance and resultant safety.

Note we have not cut-out the side vent holes on some of the photograped bodies. This is done free of charge for customers.

Will take some photos of the bonnet, boot and doors and our inner panel construction when I get a chance.

Enjoy.
