Waitng for paint to dry and orders to arrive, gives me time to be creative.
The upper hull now opens like the hood of a car for easy access to the inners. Will fit a small 20N gas spring to automate the action if there is room.
Oh, and a machine gun

With go faster stripes, I would need a huge rear spoiler for maximum downforce
Stencils, yes if I suck with the airbrush

I was at Santa Pod once and there was a rat look car there, very well done. He had a supermarket trolley handle complete with £1 unlock and chain mechanism as his spoiler lol.
