wow! i didnt relize that if i deleted picts on photobucket it did it here too.

well heres some updated picts.

the interior is pretty much stock. i flocked the floor and the lower portions of the door panels. i also added some speakers to the kick panels. i used a .005 micron pen to add some detail the decals left out.

the engine is done for the most part. maybe a little more wiring after its installed. i replaced the too tall carb hat with the stock ram-air air cleaner. i didnt think id like it, but i think its ok tthe way it worked out.

the chassis is almost wrapped up. i added fuel and brake lines and emergency brake cables and cable hangers. i also put brake lines on the axle with lines going to the calipers. i still need to extend the lines into the engine bay.

ive got the chassis done with the exception of a little touch up here and there. i'll be wet sanding and polishing the body today so the next time you see this one should be in the under glass section.
