All the cloth (fiberglass) is now on the body. Still need to fill in the grain of the cloth with resin.

In this picture you can just make out the notes for fender cut out. Also worked on the tag holder. need to put a back on it. I figure this will be a good place for a vent, right in front of the tag (the battery is in this compartment).

I worked on the hatch latch and put a front on the tag holder. Here is what the latch mounts in.

If you were less than half a meter tall this is what you would see if you looked up at the latch.

Next I put the front (back if you are standing behind the trailer) on the tag holder.

From the inside, note the battery is in here so I vented it, hidden by the tag.

Next I fiberglassed all the corners.
