V12 Roadster Project - Part 5

cant wait for next one

Love the videos mate. I'm in much the same situation with my Locost/Lotus7 replica built that has been going on for about 18 years. Interrupted by house moves, 3 kids and other car projects. I've always loved the 20/30's style of car and would like to build something similar one day. Keep up the good work!

Catching up .... because I apparently was under a rock.... OVER THE TOP KOOL build ! Addicted now... is an under statement!! "I personally like the bulge a, chin spoiler of sorts to help with the flow of aero dynamics. Plus aggressive in looks.

buldge for a slightly added strength - and even better AERO ! look`s smashing thank you keep on going . in australia we have the LS v12 - super big power !

fascinating build mate. I’m building a cyclekart and will be doing most of the body with fibreglass, so this is all very helpful 👍🏻

Impressive work (ethics)! PS a Rotex Festool sander with vacuum system would speed sanding up and prevent dust. Expensive but worth it 🏆⚡️👍

Just found this build 9 minutes ago. Humor is pretty good. The car looks beautiful. And for the lower wings I think the bulge gives the front a bit of an aerodynamic look. Without them the front lust looks like a massive bloated flutterby aka butterfly 🦋 I'm subbing to this channel for the humor and of course this build.

What English men can build in their sheds It’s quite amazing 👍👍🇦🇺

Found your channel thanks to the almighty algorithm remembering that I too am planning a scratch build. Great work so far and enjoying the presentation. I'd go with the bulge as it's in your original design and quite frankly, who doesn't like a nice bulge 😁. Chin up, keep at it and remember..... No matter how many times you need to fix your "mistakes", you'll still be finished and driving before Binky 😎👍

Have just found your build , and am thoroughly enjoying such a nice build. I would put the bulge across the front as IMHO adds a depth of style to the front finish. Keep up the good humor and the good work. Waiting for the next episode to fly in.

What a great build my friend, as previously mentioned the design of the car in the picture is amazing, id do my very best to try and stay with that , personally for me it looks its a bit bulbous the way you have changed either way ill keep watching 👍

A bit of shape to the bottom would be cool. Not just a bulge on the lip but if it tapered up and in towards the grill so the part of the wing that actually covers the wheel protrude forward of the rest of the wing.

Well... You asked for comment... looking very nice, but the lower wing fronts (in my opinion) need wasting, as the front has too much visual mass. perhaps have them shorter with the line rising from the radiator surround and curving towards the tyre, Also how about indents/recesses for the headlights, and having the head lights in a bowl (i.e. classic stand alone units). I love the project... it just looks visually very heavy at the front... perhaps some more finesse, in line with the rest of the build ????

Round off the outside corners and scallop the adjoining section where it meets the grille bottom. Like the old Mercedes models. Great car

Since your wings don't have the drastic curve back toward the grill as in the thumbnail, the bulge would probably increase rigidity and help keep them from deflecting as much. Might even look good making the bulge a separate piece that ties both sides together with a chin in the middle. Could make it a bolt on piece with formed tubing to add strength.

Just wot i needed buddy sit down with a large scotch and watch my fav gezzer tinkering in his shed 😎😎🤘🤘🤘

Straight across, definitely

V12 Roadster Project - Part 5. I want what that song was at the end of the video. love how your car is coming along.

Bulge for me. Looks more finished and also ads strength to the wing.

Why bulge when it’s going to be covered visually by a bumper of sorts? Just my thinking. I am enjoying this build and am looking forward to each update as you get closer to the finished vehicle.
