It's comeing along quite well for my first resin build, I think. The windshield's just snapped in using a couple thin strips of plastic I glued in to position it. The tint on rear side windows might be a bit lighter than I wanted but it's hard to tell when you'r doing them,,,I'm going for a factory shade of tint so it's probably pretty close.

Good foiling job so far Steve!

Your like me in that I cannot STAND sloppy fitting windows. To me it takes away from the entire appearance of the model. Same goes for ill fitting wheels/tires and or wrong stance! (ie: sitting too high)

I've spent some time this evening foiling the '59 Buick (no easy task!) Maybe if I can get it finished tomorrow I'll post pics.

I wanted to work on it this past weekend but there was overtime at work (I work 3rd shift now) and I just didn't have the ambition.:(

I'm starting to tackle the interior and that in itself is a daunting task. :shock:
