Anybody seen the pics on the kit car forum of this?

It's always interesting checking out the competition!

There is a rear window believe it or not.
Although I imagine the heat build up around the engine bay would be quite considerable.

Looks a nice car and well built.

Just sort of interesting trivia. I was told that the older sports was tried with a back window. When I was doing a lot of bodywork getting my MKIV ready for paint, I noticed that at the back where the 6 elongated vents are located, it was very flat and didn't really blend very well with the rest of the body. My painter was really the one to notice it, and we sanded it to a more smooth transition and blended it in nicely. I asked a buddy of mine about it who used to run the owners club and he mentioned that this was originally the location for a back window but that the heat was a problem.
Cheers!
