Art Laski Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 (edited) After opening the doors, I needed to work up some sort of door jambs. It looks rather simple in these pictures, but I think it will be effective when it's all painted up.

Art Laski Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 I also started on the trunk hinges. This is my first brass and solder foray when it comes to models, as little as it is! Thanks for looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gasser59 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Oh my this is looking great Art. You are a true ARTist and glad to see you doing something a bit different. Injectors will look great sticking up out of the flat hood. Serious fabrication and I'm in for the long haul. Something coming up in April?

Mooneyzs Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Art... even if it isn't finished for the DSC in April, you need to bring it...lol but would be awesome if you did complete it. I am still shooting on getting my Funny Car done by then... Actually I would love to have it done for NNL West . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasser59 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 I seriously think Art has a better chance Chris and I wish you the best of luck. In reality, I would love to see them both completed and in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyn Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Just stumbled across this one Art. Good to see you opening the panels. The detail gods are sucking you in The trunk hinges are looking great. Bonus points for using the brass flat strip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably would have been done by now if I had just left it stock, but I think I'll appreciate it in the end. Thanks for looking, Alyn!

Art Laski Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share Posted October 6, 2013 I finished the trunk fab work, so it's just about time to start painting this thing up and getting to building. I saw a reference of a Willy's that had trunk bracing and some upholstery padding in between and I liked the look, so I thought I would try to duplicate it.
