Bala Concept rendering

Thought I would post this rendering of my 'Bala' concept. Some of you may not have seen this particular image before. The front will change to reduce lift at high speeds and the windshield will be more curved (I have a production one in mind) but essentially that's the shape I am heading towards.

Comments?

Actual windshield inserted

I went to the Pick-A-Part yesterday for some research and found that indeed the Geo Metro Windshield is a perfect fit for the Bala. 54" wide at the base, 43" wide at the top and 34" long with a 16" rise in height from leading edge to top trailing edge. That's the skinniest car in the yard.

Here are those measurements 3D rendered onto my existing chassis/body design.
