    At first I thought you were going to make a set of ummm... hands to place near the grinder. Sort of like the old "Don't Let This Happen To You!" safety films. I'm glad they turned out to be gloves. I'm still enjoying the show, keep up the awesome work. David G.

    I got a little more work done on this project. Though the doors on the model do open, they are not accurate to the 1:1 car. On the car, the doors are sedan-style and have frames that support the windows. The doors on the model open Hardtop style with the window frames modeled as part of the roof and window insert. Modifying the doors is more work than I want to do, and the interior is not highly detailed. Therefore, I plan on building the replica with the doors fixed in the closed position. I also plan on replicating the limo tint as on the 1:1 car which will further limit the visibility of the interior. The interior is not highly detailed, but there is a bit to work with. Given the closed doors and the limo tint, there's more than enough detail here. For the dash details I photographed the AC vents and instruments, reduced the images with Paint Shop Pro and printed them out on my printer. Thanks for looking- comments are always welcome. David G.

    A design that stirs fear in the hearts of stout young men and makes old people sad! Wickedly awesome Ira! David G.

    Also one of my favorite movie cars! You're off to a good start. I think it's cool that as model builders, we are more concerned about the accuracy of this car than the movie producers and directors were when they made the movie! David G.

    Looking good. For the chassis paint issue, I suggest masking off the engine and exhaust and shoot it with some Dull Coat. This kit's a little fiddly, but if one takes time picking out the details, it does build into a decent looking model. I'm working on converting one back into a hearse. It's a long, slow process and I got stalled by a couple of issues I don't yet have the skill to address. But seeing yours makes me want to start on mine again. David G.
