Wow, very interesting story Tom! This one, hopefully soon, will be Artesian Turquoise.

Really nice work so far! Great info on all of the parts you used and mods you have done!

Thanks Gareth! I finally got the rear window trim done, final coat of primer and now I need to find the time to final sand and paint!

Thanks guys! I appreciate the compliments!

Very cool! Nice job!

Very nicely done! The colors are fantastic along with all of the details!

Very nice build! The multi color paint job is amazing!

Very nice looking build! The paint looks amazing! I really like the way the interior tuned out with all of the tuck n roll panels and the neat idea with carpet. Great info as well on how you did it all.

Very nice builds! Paint, details, and decals look great!

Very nicely done! You nailed the realistic look!

Welcome Steve! Nice to see another Wisconsinite here!

Welcome! Lots of great people here!

Yup! Here now about 1-1/2 years now but in Wis all my life. Yes, I did notice you were from SE Wis!

Wow! These builds are stunning! Amazing craftsmanship! Very inspiring.

Very nice! Wish I could of got a hold of a real one back in the day!

Very nice truck build!

Man, that brings back memories! I had the off road van kit when I was a kid! Yours is looking great!

Very cool concept! Bodywork looks great. You can never get enough of those colors and Shelby stripes! I have a Cobra and Tbird on the shelf, Igor have definitely given me some inspiration to do something with them!

Wow! This is looking fantastic! Definitely following along as I do a 4 door build myself.

Welcome Magnus!

Welcome to the forum Dan! Very nice hot rod! There is a lot of good people here.

Wow! A lot of great info here on this subject! Thanks to all for sharing.

Great little tool! Thanks for sharing!

Very nice work! I really like the idea of the shortened roof. Add an insert for a small bed/ pickup box behind the rear window for a custom Ranchero look! Just spit ballin. Looks great so far.

Upon further review of some reference pics, I had to add a little curve leading up to the bottom of the rear window. I added a piece of .060 styrene with the flat of it parallel to the angle of the rear pillars. Then I began the filling and smoothing process! Much easier on a 1:1 car! Had to be very careful not to sand on the top edges of the rear quarters. I covered them with painters tape during that process. As soon as this is done, I’ll add in the window trim with .040 styrene square rod.
