I assume we all do the same or similar things to torture ourselves in this hobby. I've been pleased to have a day a week lately that I can spend working on this project, but progress is slow. One of my issues is that I'm trying to match my scratch built parts to ready made kit parts. Trying to keep everything looking right, matching up all the parts correctly and keeping it all close to scale is time consuming. I've spent seven hours on templates for the rear bulkhead today and still don't have a useable part. This is part of the fun. Here's some pictures of my process. I'll sketch the part I need, then do a plan of it with rough radius' indicated. I cut them out of card stock, mate them to the what I have done on the car and make adjustments as needed. When I get a good template, I drill out the metal to these dimensions, then file them to scale radii. It's a lot of filing, but lots of handwork is the way I do it when restoring real cars, so I might as well do it here too. So here's some pictures of the work in progress. I'll post more when it moves to the next level. Thanks.
