thnx guys :) well i decided to go even more extreme , this was something i had planned for a while , kind of based of that carls ratrod (stance wise) i would want to build a milder version one day though .. had to glue the doors in and make one whole body , just because of all the alingnment and the fact the cassis and floor will take lots of messurements and dryfitting .. because i glued in the doors i decided to cut the door hinges and glue them on and give them a steel pin for extra detail then just set some wheels beside and looked at it then decided to make the whole lower line along the bottom the same as the rear so i cut of a piece of the sides down below i will make a tiny lip in there later on placed the body on a small box lid and dryfitted , the tyres sit just under the window line exactly what i wanted this is kind of the one that gave me the idea a while back , not going to build it exactly like this just used it as a guideline for the stance .. i do notice my body is longer behind the rear window ? but i dont care i like the looks even though its maybe not 100% like the real deal .. idea for the rear section of the chassis lots to do -

well went on today with the rest of the body ..... after putting the main body together i looked at it with the wheel , the body will be raised a bit higher then this of course after sanding the seem a bit then i put some bondo on the seem cut the doors and windscreen then glued it back together , the doors needed some attention during the drytime because the whole side has got a round shape and i needed to make sure the doors kept following the line very rough dryfit -

btw i dont know if you have like real close up pictures of the interiour and dash / steering wheel ? yesterday i found some awsome pics and posted them in my post but they could not be hosted true here and the link only brought me to a general album.. i also notoced the car has got a tiny piece of glass or plexi / lexan glass in a aluninium strip as some sort of tiny windscreen ? also found the handbrake lever was drilled to ... full of holes for weight savings .. that was not done real neit and i even read the lever broke at one point and they just welded a plate to it again those pics are in this album > if you click twice you can get them real big .. i will bet you already found this but hey you never know right -
