This was a builder I had bought really cheap , removed the paint and had taken it apart and tucked it away. Now looking for a next build I rediscovered the Lincoln.Cut off the visors for a smoother roof fit up front, then boxed in the rear window area. I had to add to the head liner to have a base for the roof insert for a better and smoother fit. This is another build ideas as you go project. Also picked up this UV bonder off Ebay for a few bucks to try, it works well and holds tight.

Body pretty mucb done, chassis down as far as it can go without chopping it up, roof rack is just a thought. Made the interior one big tub and filled gaps with bits of plastic . Had to make sure the cargo section had a slight taper to fit where the trucm was. Wide whites and chrome wheels may be the final choice.

Rounding the homestretch on this one, the front roof rack Im not sure where I should leave it, up front or more towards the back. The interior was just started, the engine needs to be completed.. need to do some bare metal foil and make up some rear area glass pieces.

Had to cut out rear side glass from the custom roof glass piece, I didnt mind making the curve at the end , it was the way the glass tilted inward at the top plus the curve at the end, I just could not get it right. The Lincoln custom nose piece was also going to go on but thats another "power shed".

Glad to see you have gone with the roof rack like you have it in the last photo. I think that looks best to me. 

Love what you've done with this build!
