Ariel Atom II : blueprints

Based upon my Ariel Atom II model I did for the SMC contest “Light Is Right” (and which won the contest ;) ), and because of some request for it, I made some orthographic views to use as blueprints.

2004 Ariel Atom II

I submitted a contest on www.smcars.net about modeling lightweight cars : the “Light is Right” contest, of course name after the famous quote from the very famous Colin Chapman. Nothing more than about 950kg !

The deadline is for end of August. So far, we’re 12 competitors. Of course I’m in the contest, with a 2004 Ariel Atom II.
