Yesterday I worked on the rear deck, cockpit bulkhead and cockpit side panels.
- I am making the rear deck flat between the wheel arches. I cut some strips of birch plywood and hung them with screws under the body. Then I inserted hard board between the body and the strips. Then tightened the screws so that the hardboard is held tight to the underside of the body. I inserted and sanded foam into a gap at the rear, between the body and hardboard.
- I made the rear cockpit bulkhead out of hardboard.
- I ended up making the sides of the cockpit out of heavy cardboard. i broke it down some so that it would curve easily.

Tomorrow morning I will glass these pieces in.
