Dear Mr.Thompson,

I would like to know which shapes of the rear fenders will be used for your 037 bodywork. I know that Wyer team used several different types of the rear bodywork with (various bulbes for rear wheels). These bulbes were changing from race to race during the season 1970. Will you copy the shape of the rear bodywork which Wyer' s team used on some of the most famous Gulf chassis as in case of 013? I am interested in this thing due to my plan to build the sharp scale model of this Mark Finburgh 013 car.

Thanks in advance

Best regards and good luck with your old/new "The Beast on The Wheels ( it was the most famous nickname of the 917 among the fans in our country many years ago)
