Just thought I'd share this before the other door panel goes on.....

Oh yeah, @Steve H I tried Elmer's White glue for the flocking on the door panels. 

It is a little better than the clear glue....

Hi Derek, thanks for the input on the glue. I was quite curious about the clear. This is a great looking build, I’m enjoying watching it come together. I’m about to do a search on your wheel choice, I like those!

Cheers, Steve

Decisions, decisions.....

? ?‍♂️ ? ?‍♂️

BTW, I like the middle spoon if you’re taking votes…

[slusher]

Derek, fantastic roof conversion, enjoying watching your work sir..

[NOBLNG]

Nice job on the roof transplant. I agree with Steve, the middle spoon is the nicest colour.

[gotnitro?]

The interior looks fantastic 

Definitely vote the middle spoon

[Katsusauce]

And I agree with all of you, the middle spoon is the nicest and closest to the factory 1972 Olds color.

I was actually favoring the spoon on the right....but in the end all of you were right.

Tropical Glitz "Bahama Breeze" is about to get shot!

Flashed and fresh outta the spray booth. 

Raw, naked and yet untouched Tropical Glitz paint.

Even though I haven't color sanded it yet, the color and flakes pop.

Can't wait to see her paint done.

Great looking color..

I agree. The color is nice. Where do you buy the paint?

Thanks, paint is from Tropical Glitz

I agree with others, that's a great looking color. Lots of eye ball here.

Great job! Loving the color choice too

Very sharp wheels, I like them..

[Katsusauce]

Chassis is coming together......

Oh, and after I glued the exhaust and rear end assembly onto the chassis is when I realized I forgot to sand the mold seams off the mufflers.....?

Wow! The front grill looks amazing.  Loving the custom decals you printed, great stuff, those little details add so much to the finished build.
