Looks like the A-piller has been repaired acouple of times.Nothing major here,except the omitted Vent post.

I have the A-piller back in place and started work ont he Vent post, Awhile back i started makin them out of two pieces of sheet stock, for better detail and less work sanding and filling.

The worst part on this project was the custom panel on the back,it was really glued on!

Here's acouple more inprogress shoots.

The glue ont he lower front fenders was pretty thick, but i was able to sand it back to almost smooth again (both sides were like this)

A nothing fancy interior, paint brite red then shot with testor's dull coat custom lacquer rattl can.

Off to look for some red line tires,and i will be using the 7 Litre wheel covers. and the engine (hope i can find one LOL)

You are good at it thats for sure. I keep on trying bring them back myself. I would rather do that then build a new out of the box model. What do you use to strip the old paint off ? I use super clean but it does not always work . Yours always look so like new when you strip them.

Thanks James!

I use Super clean aswell,I think the key here is i always get busy and forget i have stuff in the lake......and most times it doesnt take the paint off,I did acouple 70s ford trucks and they didnt get to clean but clean enough to primer and everything should be ok.......
