sorry no new updates yet, been having bad luck for the past two weeks.  The first week my apartment got flooded with a foot of water from the person up above me, and now my car is done for, while driving the front driver side wheel just snapped off and underneath everything is twisted, so have no car at the moment to get to the shop to do some work on it.  but will be getting back to work on the enzo this weekend, purchasing a new car in a few days.
yeah.
hope c the update soon~~
cheers

well its been a while since I've worked on the enz, been busy with my personal life and stuff.  Anyways I'm re working the whole thing and trying to make it a one piece body so that it will be easier to build.  So I might consider selling the old molds as I am making new ones.


The pictures here shows the begining of the new molds in the works.  I've started glassing the front end together, and everything should all be sanded and smooth ready for painting hopefully by this weekend so that I can start making new molds!

I would prefer seperate panels.  How close are you to sending my customer's parts? I sent him to you so I did not have to get in the middle.

What's the bonus of having a one piece kit? Will you still be able to open up the trunk in the front?

The bonus is that all the pannels are align correctly, you can always cut out the hood and have it functional

 You will understand the bonus when you hit the front bumper Wink  Unibody saves time and $$$ during the build, though.

i cannot wait to see the rear clip all glassed together (  Grin  ) will you have a small indention on the body lines where the seams are suppose to be or will it be smooth

AS SOON AS I GET MY REAR CLIP THIS IS MY PLANS FOR IT

this top will also work on our   N-Z-O SPIDER







IF THEIR IS ANY INTEREST IN THE N-Z-O SPIDER we will sell you the rear spider clip & roof  ( made from  prototype2 rear section ) an the front cap an modified doors will be shipped from prototype2

Riding a 104.3-inch wheelbase, the N-Z-O SPIDER  is 185 inches long overall and stands 44 inches tall  [ FULL SIZE ]

LOL, Yea thats what I was thinking... I wouldn't want to replace the whole body if something were to happen... If my bumper gets smashed beyond repair I wouldn't want to have to purchase a whole body just for the bumper.

I can not speak for Proto or any othe manufacture but I would think that most would sell you just a portion of the kit you wrecked.  Then all you would have to do is cut out the damaged section and glass in the new section..


Proto... will you still be offering the sepperate panels?  This is the rout I would prefer to go.

I'm offering two options, not just the one piece front end.  I am only making the front end for thoose who want a perfect fit and less work too do.  No one says that you cant cut out the hood and bumper once you get it.  The front end is the only part that Im making a one piece clam shell, everything else stays the same.
