Looks fantastic Tim!!!! What are you using to adhere your emblems to the body? I'm almost scared to death to put mine on as it's a fair amount of risk involved. lol

Thanks, guys!

Joe - I used super glue on the end of a needle to get it to adhere to the body.  I tried a couple of other glues, but couldn't get them to stick.  I settled on the super glue, followed up with some acrylic gloss over the top of the them once the glue dried.  I also use acrylic gloss to glue the lights in place as well.

man...  NICE work!   as usual... but still... wowza!

Oh and joe and tim..not that you asked me....but...lol

Ive had good luck with the SuperGold BSi glue... its nonfogging... so no worries about the white haze..  I use it for almost everything after paint.

Both are excellent ideas and I appreciate you guys feedback. It'd suck to go through all the hell I've went through of getting everything the way I want with my 69 Camaro and goofing it all up with the emblem install. Thanks again fellas.

Wow, this is really nice! Great work on the paint and finish. Glad to see you got the doors to open correctly. Cant wait to see her under glass

Almost there... Getting closer to finishing this one up. Just a radiator hose and battery to add to the engine bay and this one will be complete. I'll post more pics this weekend after everything is buttoned up.
