the only thing i can think is maybe your putting to much on at a time. maybe when its curing it lifting off the smooth plastic instead of cracking like it would on a real car. but i have never seen anything like this unless the plastic is oily

no real progress pictures just cause they would look to ugly (a roof with some red mud and grey primer all over the place). just got a little worried the thread fell back a page, thats all just hoping its still going strong -

finally figured out the prob i was having with the fitment of my roof. it turns out that one of the doors is much shoter then the other so nothing would line up after that. man it was driving me nuts but its all fine now. -
to much work in it already for it to be a rat rod. just a mean looking truck

i was in to them in a big way when i was in to real offroarding. the shutdown all our 4wheeling spots so i kinda lost intrest, but i still know a lot about chassis set up and just making those little trucks work right from scale to compition. any questions just ask.

i have had some major setbacks with my 37 thats why no updates but i think i may have figured it out so i hope to start working on it again next week. i think it will be much smoother and i should be able to get a bunch of pictures. -

yes most real rods run a droped axel. just an idea im building a 31 ford tudor in a 60 show style. i wanted low but it will also have full fenders so a z'ed frame was outta the question. so what i did was just lift the cross members the frame stayed flat but i got the car as low as i wanted it. if you dont understand i could get pictures but its really pretty easy to understand.

cool another 37 it looks like were going for two diffrent styles though. are you using the stock chassis and running gear. its cool that this kit gives you the s/s as well as the other wheels. i already have another project in mind for those wheels -

well its not chopped in the way of lowering the roof. ford never made a three window 37( i think the last three window was made in 35 maybe). but i really have never seen a chopped 37 i ever really like some thing always looked strange, so why not make it a three window. so yes its chopped but not that kind of chop. -
