Great banter, you must have been a Hillclimber in the past!

Yaris went to scrappage(with a goon pedal) and we bought an iQ!
Strangely, this is not on the 'pedal surgery' list.

I can't see the Lola body 'converting' to a 908 shape as the Porsche body is just fantasic in every view. The 908 shape is a late 60's and the Lola a late 80 and slab-sided like so many others of the age. IMHO they got a lot uglier in later years with the covered wheels (illegal in Hillclimbs I'm told)

however, the fins and a small cord wing between that is adjustable with a good adjustable front splitter could be good.

Advice on the front splitter is about 50mm protrusion, but the experts are out on if it should extend to the front bulkhead (givinf a 'floor' under the currently open parachute fron end.

Any thoughts anyone?

Been given the address of the cover lady who tailors a trailerable cover for cars. Saville Row style of fit.

Hope to get the car back fron McClurg Motorsport Sat with a finished body to fit.

Carbs next which I'm dreadding if it all goes ti~ts up

Tempting still:
