Fantom Posted September 22, 2023 Author Share Posted September 22, 2023 I’ve decided to delete the t tops. The clear tops have been sanded smooth, all the molded in lugs inside the roof ground off as much as possible, and the panels glued in and filled. Next I will sand them smooth and build a headliner. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantom Posted September 30, 2023 Author Share Posted September 30, 2023 It’s always been my plan to add lights to the car, head lights tail lights…everything. I built light buckets for the taillights and will use rechargeable batteries hidden in the trunk area. I want to have access to the charging chord with out disassembling the whole car so I am using magnets to attach the rear spoiler and am going to run the chords behind the gas filler door.

Sam I Am Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 I really like the changes you have made with the wheels and filling in the t-tops. It is going to give it a whole different flavor than a smokey and the bandit tribute. Makes me think I can turn mine into a Rockford Files car, the later one.

Holdon Coupe Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Nicely done and Looking good so far.

Fantom Posted May 2 Author Share Posted May 2 Made some progress…finally got color on the body, factory matched Heritage Brown, from a local supplier…I have a new radiator, core support, charcoal cannister, and battery tray from a 3 d printer. Interior is coming along nicely, dashboard is almost complete using 3D printed instrument bezels, Pioneer head unit, made new steering wheel stalks, still waiting on some decals for instrument panel. Seats and door panels got the chrome trim that Monogram left off, door panels are done, waiting on decals for the herringbone pattern for the seats. I also converted the console to accommodate a 4 speed shifter. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
