Modified Roadster
« on: January 31, 2009, 11:34:32 PM »
Does any anyone have a cad model of a '27 Ford roadster (just the body shell). Even in Solid Works or Maya will do.  I am helping a friend build a modified roadster and will be doing some CFD work for him  I don't want to plot all the points and build the model.  If anyone can help me with it I will share all the CFD work with you.

Dan, He is HP limited. The only way for him to get some speed is to let the aero help him. I think their is some gains to be had in the shape of the nose and under body.  It is a lot faster to test  the theory on the computer before building the molds. :-)  If you have some time I will send you the program and the gauge to take the points.  :lol: I just don't want to do it.  I did my '32 and it was not fun.

Dan, I knew you were trying to get me.  LOL  My roadster should be ready this year and hopefully I will get a visit from you.  At least wishful thinking.  :-D

I learned a long time ago - always go to impound if you think you belong Warner can always kick you out.

The reason we go to the salt is to visit impound, be ready when you come off the trailer. We called it 6 packing to 200.
