Thanksgiving doesn’t seem the same without a large family gathering.

Thanks David. I believe I have a small amount of body warpage that prevents the cowl curvature from matching the firewall…a minor thing. Making the cowl conform brings the top of the interior door panels level with the window openings. Edit: I figured it out.? I had the entire floor pan/frame too far back. I had the fender well section attached to the frame tucked in behind the body mount attached to the firewall. DOH!!!? Now I feel stupid.?

There seems to be interference here. Step 20 and 23 clearly show the firewall attached to the interior tub. But it looks here like it might better be attached to the floor pan? Edit: I don’t think it’s possible to close this gap without notching the floorpan and the interior bucket where it meets the firewall.?

I seem to be having trouble getting the interior tub and the floor pan to mesh properly? I have watched assembly videos and read build threads here…everyone says it basically falls together. The interior is located properly in the body, but the floor pan won’t push up far enough for the frame rails to meet the inner fenders. Am I doing something wrong? Anyone else have this issue? Thanks for any input, Greg.

A better pic of the business end.? The drill on the left is my favourite (which looks similar to the one sold by Micro Mark) because of the slender jaws that protrude from the collet. It makes it a lot easier to see what you’re doing in tight spaces. The center one is a cheap Chinese one from Amazon. It worked Ok, but I wound up stealing the spring off it to repair the first one. The AK pin vise on the right is very nice too. The three jaw chuck is true and will hold from a #80 up to a 5/32” drill bit.

One member here was working on one. I don’t know what became of it?

Camels is a brand of cigarettes that I have never smoked.

Nice looking Chevelle! It is a rewarding feeling when working on and completing a replica of a special vehicle that we have owned. Well done?

Thanks again everyone.?

It looks great to me too Ken!? It could use some tail lights though.?

Pan full of lasagna right about now sounds appetizing.

Very nice looking CJ.?

Good looking truck, and real nice job getting it messy!?

She looks great!?

I like how it turned out too!??

Beautifully done Anders! ? I am currently working on the Tamiya kit and hope it turns out half as nice as yours.?

That is truly a thing of beauty…it actually sparkles! Very well done.?

Well, I think that is one sharp looking Camaro!?

Nice looking ‘Cuda!?

Neat idea…no snow too deep!?

Now that’s a little different…in a cool sorta way.? Odd how those doors are hinged, but Renault did do some weird stuff.

Nicely done Bob!? Makes me want to start mine.?

In no part of that picture do I see anything resembling a cat.?
