Getting rid of the wood grain paneling and the molded in headlight is about the kindest thing you could do with that body. For as many great parts as AMT put into that kit they sure missed with the body. You did a great job smoothing it out, looks like it has a real chance of being a nice rod.

I couldn't have said it any better! It's amazing just how good that sedan delivery body looks now without all that junk, it really flows nicely. Looking forward to some progress pics.
