Here is a look at how I made the body.


First I CNC cut 2 aluminum plates I had on hand to make a fixture that will hold the sheet plastic so it can be formed.



Here you can see both plates have been cut.


Then I added a handle on each end of one of the plates and then cut out the center.


You guessed it. The plastic gets bolted between the 2 plates so it can be heated and formed.




It is not perfect but it will do just fine for a race car.


Here I added a little paint and marked out the windows.


Then I added the car number.

Below are a few more body pictures.





The next step is to create the body mounts.
More details coming soon!
