I've got the first round of filler done on the doors. It looks pretty good, but sanding these things are a royal PITA.





Most of the front suspension pieces are painted and ready for final assembly.

I`ll bet its a pain, too many angles to make straight!

the frame looks sweet

cheers

It's the corners that suck. I did learn you can get into the corners with a scribing tool. You lay it on the side and it cuts halfway decent, but still a pain.

Here's a rough idea of the interior colors. The turquoise is darker and the tan is more of a light buckskin than what appears in the pic. I've got flocking that is a dead on match for the turquoise to use for the carpeting. The floor and rear wheel houses need one more coat before the flocking goes down.

Very cool. Looks very modern

I realized I screwed up the color scheme with the dash and needed a fix.





Flocked the rear half, not real happy with it, I'll touch up some spots after it dries. It should look good with the amps and subs. I guess I should make/find a head unit for it.

The frame is just about done, A little more work on the front suspension, brake, gas and air lines should button it up.

Some mock up shots.











The color for the body. It's a base of acrylic with nail polish pearl over it. Once the polish gases out I'll clear it with urethane.
