The GD cobra chassis is more akin to a TVR style layout, but yes they all stem from early Lotus designs. GD now have the AC MK4 body molds and produce the most lovely bodies that can be simply polished to a paint like finish.

Ozgur, your work and skills are just so amazing

Sorry for the threah drift.

Ozgur_Tan 03-07-2009 09:00 AM

Thank you for your kind words
I've had opinion to paint car bodies that made of composite material instead of polished gel coat finish.
Please take a look to rear view of my buck without clear coat applied.

Just kidding about the secrets Oz. After all, here you are sharing your incredible work with all of us. It would be fantastic to visit you in Turkey, but unfortunately this trip I'm staying home stuck on a business project while the wife globetrots with the in-laws.:)

EDIT: Nice rear!
