Since my first post there has been a small development on the D type idea so that will not be going on a Roadster chassis as it could (fingers and toes crossed) cause a conflict of interests in 2-3 months time.
I like the Raw Fulcrum as it's a squared off Fury and would also appear to be easier to make as the basic shape unlike the Fury which has all sorts of contours.
As much as I like the retro styling with wire or steel wheels I think most people would want a nice set of alloys on the car, which is why the fury seams to appeal so much it looks like modern classic.
I've been looking at 50-60's sports cars and also the more modern designs and have come to the conclusion that there is scope to make contemporary classic. What I have in very rough sketches and what has been pointed by some one else is that I've inadvertently designed the 7 that TVR might have made.
I'm going to start a 1/2 scale model next month and see what people think.
