Hello Ozgur, I really like what you are doing. Building the body from scratch is quite an undertaking. I admire that.

I thought that you might like to see how my project is coming along. I have the frame done. Now, I'm working on the body. I've moved the Miata engine rearward and lowered it. But, it is still to tall for the hood to shut. I took a damaged hood from my sons race car and rough trimmed it to lay in between the fenders. I'll make a smooth transition from the nose all the way to the rear of the hood. From the side you can see that I lengthened the body. The car has functioning doors. I was testing the hinges. I will have to lengthen the doors to match the body when I have everything set.

Good luck with the DBR1. I will be looking for your updates. I'm sure that it will be spectacular.





John
