The wheel wells are made from two cylinders and a torus.  I built the
whole box as a CSG union, then differenced the inner surface of the
wheel wells out with the same cylinder/torus combination 1/16 smaller.

The mesh was in answer to my request for ideas in p.a-u.  It works
quite well as long as you don't try to scale it up too high and forget
that expanded steel actually looks more like a group of sine waves.

Defective O-O
