Got some of the interior done.Made the door panels and cut down some GTO seats.I'm using a '65 Rivy and going to make it right hand drive.There will be a cover over the cargo area.I was thinking of putting the Monkeeys decal on the cover.

Doing some of the body work ! There was a low spot on the roof , but there shouldn't be a lot of putty after sanding.

Still not sure if it's going to be red or rootbeer.

Purple, then instead of Monkee Mobile, it could be the Grape Ape.

really, nice styling

Heh, sometimes I think the same thing, but I still keep building models what need "too much" bodywork... :rolleyes:

You're doing good job, though. Keep It Up. B)

For "hating" the body work you certainly are making short work of it!

:D

I really like the time you are putting into the interior as well!

This build is really shaping up!

Thank You for sharing this build, it is something quiet different!!

Thanks Niko and Rusell!

I got the body in white primer and it looks like it only needs some wet sanding.I don't remember were I saw it ,but someone said to use silver to block the red plastic from bleeding, then another coat of primer?

Haven't had a lot of time to work on it lately ! Got some of the dash done and braced the body for all the sanding I've been doing .It is smooth and ready for primer and paint Hope there is no more body work to do !

Yes it is right hand drive.

Added some trim to the grills and found some wire mesh for the inserts.

Hope to get some more done soon!
