I'm building a 'tribute' car, not a 'clone' but my version of the Ed Roth - Road Agent from 1964.
The original was a 'Show Car' based on a tube frame chassis, with a dropped front axle and a 1960 Corvair engine.
Mine will be VW Beetle and fully road legal and designed to be driven.
Need to sort the steering, as keeping the VW front axle, the body/grille will come 'over' front beam.
Took delivery of me two bubble tops on Monday, just wanted to clarify the 'Rebody Rules' so now full steam ahead.
1 fluorescent (for shows) & 1 Clear (that will be cut down to from a 'screen' for daily driving)
Body will be made laying fibreglass over a plaster & vermiculite buck.
This Forum is a fantastic site for information and ideas, but I don't see where my car build could be posted.
