Where I started

After a dip in the purple pond and some careful measuring

sum filler not bad for my first time full sized car section

And where I'm at quick mock up

 

Don't expect daily updates or even weekly updates but suggestions welcome !!!!

If those pictures in the background are what you are aiming for then this one will definitely be fun to watch.  You did a good job on the section.  Looking forwad to updates.

i LIKE WHERE THIS IS GOING.

This is one car screaming to be sectioned because it turn into a different car! I learned to section on this when I was 14, but unfortunately, never finished everything else.

Looks like a beautiful job you've done and itching to see where it goes.

Chop that top a proportionate amount.

Looks good! And hats off to you giving an older build a new life. I've yet to section a shoebox ford myself. How much did you section it?

slow and steady

I like that the unchopped  top accentuates the sectioning on this car.  Just the sectioning makes it a completely different car.

The main portion of the body and the Sectioning looks perfect. When ever you do such a major alteration to the body other areas can start to snow ball on you. I would suggest you think about altering the rear wheel well opening to match the front one. A simple paper cutout for a template is all you would need. Hold it up to the body and see which looks better to you. The Hood doesn't seem to set right and it is hard to tell if its the Hood or the front Grill surround. The surround look good but some work in that area will help. The front Roll Pan seems high up on the front. By raising it up you lose the lowered look in that area. You're off to a great start and very impressive since its your first time.
