You'll need some space/apetures for the radiator for starters!

Besides, there's enough radiant heat to the cabin as it is hehe

looking at the front end i would think there is plenty of space apetures for the radiator already...there are 2 huge openings at the bottom each side and looking at the bonnet section outlets for the air to escape again???

Or as suggested rads each side in the engine bay??? fuel tanks in the front of the car with luggage space.........what luggage????????

The rear although early days didnt do it for me, still something missing.
Again the front great to see something different, but surely we can come up with something better!

Lets not forget this beast isnt far off the ultimate Mclaren F1, and im the first to say no imitations but as a base its a great starting point.

Anyone out there got anymore examples?

I have a spare front clip going cheap, if anybody is brave enough to try and re model the front end, I was going to give it a go, but unfortunatly time is against me with a couple of new projects on the go.

The pic above looked promising, but having seen the video it looks very 'kit car' and not in a good way!
