Home,

Good turn out from the Worcester Car Club. All walks of life at C&M. Really expensive Italian cars beginning with F, cant say it, Ill have to spit on the floor.
To Hillman imps with patina, motorbikes, drag race inspired Ford Anglia 100E with wheelie bars, Consuls, V8 Triumph heralds hmmmm not for me.
1 RX8, 1 RX7, a Dodge truck parked next to a westfield looked funny.

An AZ1 ....... super looking old skool porsche, Lotus Elan ( gone before I got chance to take pics)

As theres not many display cars.... your pretty much governed by what turns up on the day, so going with a car club is a great idea. Especially if your travelling from the far end of the country as your guaranteed to see some great stuff in the car park.

£5 entry for cars regardless of passengers. Great atmosphere, car guys talking to bikers, old, young, bring ya dog even.

Hope you enjoy the pics. I buy a decent camera one day instead of using my phone.......

I'm sure many people follow this with anticipation of the next part or piece being constructed, so your far from boring people.

p.s. fancy posting up pictures of this becoming famed Caffeine and Machine outside and in, as we will try and get there some time.

In which case.........

Carved the hole in the spoiler for the third brake.

pattern made from sandwiched pieces of 10 x profiles cut in 12mm ply and 100mm polystyrene....

.......sanded to get the rough shape and covered in "Clag"....... shaped. It has curves on 3 planes........... i hate it lol

Chucked it on the car this evening, bodged some more foam on the ends so the spoiler will over sail the gap on the boot lid opening and sit on the rear quarters.

More clag and shaping, then its more moulds to make.

Spoiler in primer.

Need to be clever with the moulds on this one. gotta lay it up on both halves and then sandwich together, and fill with PU foam.

sounds messy!
