Hello Tommy, When I make the final Fairing shape I'm thinking of having the top edge mimic the contour of the rear of the body as it curves under. The short deck is challenging.

- Today I glassed in the rear deck, flares, cockpit bulkhead, and interior sides of the cockpit.
- I ground down the seams of the flares so that the glass would bond better. I also sanded all hardboard pieces with 36 grit paper for better bonding.
- I like the look of the car with out the roll bar or fairing too. A single roll bar, Cobra style, would work well to IMO.
- when I got home it sunny and 39 degrees. I sat on my deck, looked at my view, and soaked up the sun. It's a great day.
