The John Lee Upper Shell Photo by David Johnson created 2/6/2002 submitted 2/7/2003 02:45:46 PM This shows the newly completed upper shell of The John Lee. Notice how the body sags slightly because it is not ribbed. You can see a crack running around the edge of the door. When this body is supported, this seam is not visible. The windscreen has not been added yet to the door. JL_upper_shell_iso.JPG | 1474 x 1111 | image/pjpeg | djohnson

| Winscreen mold Photo by David Johnson submitted 2/7/2002 This is the mold used to form the windscreen. Felt was laid into the mold so that the plexiglass wouldn't pickup the small imperfections in the mold and fog the vision. Butter was used as the lubricant to aid in forming the plexiglass to the contours. | |
