I want to see how you do the weld detail.  I simulated that once on a AMT '34 Ford pick up with paint, not too exciting.  Yours should have texture...

Awesome start! Looking forward to following along. 

Thanks, sir. Once I finish my 66 F100, I will be right back in the saddle with this one. I am excited to recreate the open roof with the wood cross bracing in place. However, I have thought of recreating the cross bracing to look like steel with lots of lightening holes and matching bomber seats for that Kool Kustom rod aesthetic.

Thanks for all of the compliments, gents.

I have shaping tools that I have made from a soda can. The one I will use is crescent shaped. I use tamiya extra thin quick set type to soften the rod as I use the tool to shape the beads to give it a realistic effect. The car will have a bare metal finish. 

Slammed, stretched, channeled, chopped and sometimes, sectioned is the way to go. Extreme is certainly my style. 

And as far as extreme goes, this car will look amazing next to my frame laying 66 F100, which is about to get painted this weekend. I have a build thread here...
