You never know. If you have a recycling center near by there is an unending supply of cardboard and paper... looks like a great way to get curved surfaces. Might be fun, too.Very intresting: A new side car body coming up? SB...........Curt

That's what I was trying to figure out. I think you're right that it is steered by the rear wheel."Wow. Front wheel drive and steering."
At second glance, I think it is a rear steer car.
An advantage to the paper and cardboard approach would be that you could sculpt the shape by adding layers where you want it built out more. Which approach is best would depend on the shape you wanted. Compound curves might be a real challenge to build the underlying form for.Wheela,
There is a technique used in making skin-on-frame
kayaks where nylon is sewn onto the frame and then
shrunk with a heat gun or hair dryer. the site belongs
to Bryan something? I think you can find it under:
Cape Falcon Kayaks. Once the nylon is snug, it's coated
with resin. With such a process, the paper layers would
be unnecessary and lighter as well. If nothing else, it's
a very interesting site with lots of pics of trips as well as
kayak building.
