Singer made a big deal about a carbon fiber insert bonded to the tub that increased rigidity, however there have never been any images made available and I doubt that he invested the money in computing time required to adequately model it. The first car (the orange one) was built with a loan from his father-in-law and he was barely able to finish it, let alone invest in modeling.

I view Singer much like Orange County Choppers insofar as they both order a lot of off-the-shelf custom parts and assemble them into a finished product they then brand.
