Ira Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 Made some more progress on Willys Deal! Here is a mock-up on Deal's Wheels Tires... The wheel wells were enlarged with an X-acto knife and sandpaper to fit the DW tires. I applied putty and sanded the body down pretty smooth. Now for some primer/filler!
