Matt's Stradale

Superb work. There is something so 'pure' about the stradale shape with no roof/boot spoiler.

I agree - but I do wonder how much stability the car will lose without spoilers - if I ever manage to get this on the road, that is..

I could't tell with the orange Hawk I had with no spoilers (or louvres), compared to the blue Hawk that had a roof wing and rear spoiler.
The lack of rear spoiler helps a lot with rearward vision, but that combined with no rear louvres on the orange car was bliss.

Only another 6 years before its finished...

Tanks finished, engine in, odds and sods done = interior and wiring next

Matt, what did you do with the louvre panels eventually? did you get a replacement set, or did you further modify the Italian set?

Looks really pretty by the way!!

Bloody gorgeous!

Thanks Griff - the louvres were made from scratch in the end - a long and and very laborious process that involved a lot of swearing...

Wow! I love the colour, and those stripes look really good?
