interior is about 50% done, need to do a little touch up paint in some spots, as well as a steering column and wheel. I think its coming along nicely.

Primed the body of the car, also started changing the interior to white instead of tan. I think ill change my mind and paint the car yellow instead of copper, i like the way the R/T stripes contrast with yellow paint.

This is a car I built when I was about 12, its pretty terrible as you can see in the pictures. It kinda fell apart as the years went by, so I am going to rebuild it and hopefully make it much better. I hope to make it look like the copper colored one that I saw just the other day.

Really beautiful 'cuda you got there, keep up the good work!

lookin good man! keep up the good work.

Just finished the second headlight. They both open and close like butter now. I also started to paint the grill, however a lot of the chrome flaked off so I am gonna paint the whole thing silver to get it one color.

Thanks! I really appreciate all the comments from you guys. I finalized the headlight mechanism on that side of the grill and decided to see how it would look when it was on the car, however im not done because I still need to make the other headlight door open and close. Also I need to sand on the driver side fender, because it is scratch built and making the grill sit crooked.

I also decided on my wheels, I really wanted to find some steel wheels laying around but didn't find any, so I just decided on cragars. I also decided to mismatch one of the tires, just because why not.

well, I did it. After two days of planning, anger, and happiness, I know have one of the headlight doors functioning. Now I just have to get the other one working as well. I am quite happy with this, even though the mechanism to make the door open looks like BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH. It is the first time i have tried anything this complicated, S I am pretty proud of myself.

Sweet man! I definitely look forward to seeing this build go along!

I'm putting a 440 in it, nothing special, just a turquoise, greasy, nasty 440 that is 50 years old. however I don't have any pics right now, I have been very busy the past few days, so sorry about that guys.

LOL! I know right! I was also thinking about making the trunk floors rusted out too.

lookin good so far! look forward to seeing more progress.

did some weathering to the chassis, put a few rust holes in the frame rails. I just did a brown wash for the base of the weathering. Then I sprayed clear coat on it and sprinkled cinnamon all over it, then sprayed clear coat on top of that. I'm not completely done with the weathering, but I think it looks good so far.

Started some rust damage on the tail panel today what do you guys Think?
