Like the color combo, and the pin stripes really look period correct, but how did you texture the ragtop (it's great).

From the pens mentioned above I use the springs, the sizes are good for front coils and coilovers. But never thought about the other parts. Thanks! The plastic cookie trays and other bakery trays that have ribs can be used for for rolled upholstery, and I cut my headliners from styrofoam plates (only use acrylics to paint and use double side tape to attach). Medical duropore tape can be cut into 2 or 3 mm strips for seat belts/harness and painted any color (looks like real webbing material) and it's adhesive. Like the wire source from ear buds.

Really like the color combination, especially the blackened chrome. Good build!

I can donate a set of tires to your build. I've got Goodyear Eagle ZR40 or Goodyear VR50. I checked them against my AMT Chevy Vantasty kit tires and they are very close to size, the ZR40 are a lower/wider profile than the VR50. Also have mural and graphic (in purple shades) from Dirty Donny, if you would be interested.

The 59 chevy caps are not quite like the Lancer, but if you want them for your build send me your address. I'm a long time fan of the 40 Coupe since reading Street Rod back in the 60's. I attached a photo of the ones I didn't use from the chevy build. By the I love green not matter what color it is.
