Preciate it Gator! I aint gonna lie, exterior gloss finishes are my weakness. I'll get this sucker nailed one way or another though.

I like the looks of that cowl hood on that C/K. Cool project Dan!

I dare say...................yes. Overkill?...............probably yes. Overcautious? ..............definitely. I think I got everything covered in that 2 hours though to include re-shooting the cab and front fenders. I really didn't like how it turned out the first time. I may have a tailgate hinge or two got left out and that'll be about it.

Ed: Now that is funny right there! Thanks bud! Carl: I used a really small dot of super glue applied with a toothpick. Dan: Thanks Dan! It would be nice if I'm finished with it so I can take it but one things for sure; I'm not going to hurry things up at the last minute to meet a deadline. I'm either done with it or I aint. If not, then there'll be the Houston show next April. I'm still going regardless of this build's completion status though. Yesterday I spent two hours in the paint booth getting everything body wise painted red. It's Tamiya acrylic paint so I'm guessing it wouldn't take near as long to dry out as enamel would.

Man that whole thing looks freekin' great so far to me Dan! I like what you've done to that engine. Great detail!!!!

For not being into it you sure did a helluva job!

Aww man that sucks. He really entertained a lot of folks and definitely left his mark for some time to come.

Thanks Ray! Here's the latest ..................

Thanks Carl!!! I'm gonna put a set of keys in the seat as well. lol

Gotcha covered Tom! http://www.hobbylinc.com/detail-master-interior-junk-plastic-model-vehicle-accessory-kit-1:24-1:25-scale-2380

Got this one in today. I love this stuff!!

I'm sure it will Darren. With all the planning you've got you'll get at there very least really close to what you're after.

Say.................you may be on to something.......

Thanks Mark, Tim and Ed!!! Ed: I don't know if its the angle of the photos or what but there's more room between the dash and the steering wheel than it looks. What I did have trouble with was getting the steering wheel off of the seat because the standoff bracket between the column and the dash was too long.

Too cool! Too cool I say!

Well here we are with the interior about 70-80% completed. The aluminum steering column helped ALOT as well as the steering wheel from the Barris T Buggy kit. All brake and accelerator pedals are PE as well as the Hot Rod Magazine in the front seat. Instrument panel and radio trim are Chrome BMF. The steering wheel spokes and center are AB'd with Alclad. I still have a set of keys and some Oakley sunglasses to paint up and adhere to the seat beside the magazine. I've got some clean up to do here and there but it's getting closer folks..... and a far off shot to show overall progress....

Man I appreciate that Eric! Hopefully I can get this rascal finished by the end of the month. Carl: The fuzzy dice came from Hobbylinc and come in a lot of different colors. They've got some clear ones as well. The link: http://www.hobbylinc.com/cgi-bin/s8.cgi?str_s=dice&redir=1 The magazines came from ebay. Here's the link for those: http://www.ebay.com/itm/171675328419?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Thanks Carl! Got this last night........... as well as another one of these..... (I sanded too much from the base of the hood scoop ! )

Watching...........

................speechless!!!!!

Thank you Mark!

Nifty. I like it!

Looks great Ray!! Cool color too!

Just couldn't help myself. Had to get these..........

Hang in there John. Hate to hear the news but with the right mindset and pure will , you'll be back on your feet going strong before you know it. Attitude is everything pal so take it one day at a time through your recovery.
