  11. Hello......this was built a few years back.......started with the AMT Don Nicholson 62 Belair Super Stock kit and built the 62 Pro Stock..........I used parts from the parts box.....Slixx decals,Slixx Hood,Slixx wear tires......wired and plumbed.......H.O.K. white.......baremetal foil.....thank`s.
  12. Skip and Rick......I cut off the the outer ring of the wheel....... and added a thin piece of styrene to the wheel to compensate for the loss of what I sanded off.......then I sanded and shaped for a snug fit........thank`s
  13. Terry......I`ll try to explain the hinges.......first I sanded off the hinges that were on the doors already ......becuse they were not necessary......then I used styrene rods and driled the center out.......and cut 6 little pieces for each side......then with flat styrene I cut 6 moon shaped pieces for each side and glued the drilled rod pieces to each end of the moon shaped piece.......then I glued 3 of those pieces to the rear of the body........look at the photos and you will see the placement ......you will have to file a little grove into the body so that the end of the rod will hang out like it did before you sanded it off the door.......after you have glued these on and the glue dries......you can sand the inside flat........then line up the door with tape and line up all the hinges......stick a straight pin threw the hinges so that everything lines up and then carefully glue the the 3 moon shaped.hinges to the door ......you will need to file a slot as well so that the hinge is where it would be before you sanded it off .........then after the glue dries you can file the inside flat......repeat for the other side......I would use super glue.....it dries fast and is very strong.......if you need more info let me know......thank`s.
