We've seen the new AW Corvette. I think looks pretty good:
But it COULD be lower. So I got to looking at the bottom of the body:
and hacked on the purple one, since it's a kinda ugly color and I wouldn't feel as bad if I messed it up.
Basically, I removed the crap at the bottoms of the windows and the little pegs that locate the window under the back edge of the hood. I also removed the side windows to make oiling the gearplate easier. Then I shortened the screwposts a little and found that the arm gear was VERY close to the windshield, so I thinned the bottom edge of the windshield a little.
To be honest, I was hoping for a more drastic difference, but I think it still looks pretty good with a little less daylight in the wheelwells...
