Art Laski Posted October 1, 2013 Author Posted October 1, 2013 Loving it so far,look forward to more! Thanks, Matt! More updates (minor) coming up.
Art Laski Posted October 1, 2013 Author Posted October 1, 2013 (edited) After opening the doors, I needed to work up some sort of door jambs. It looks rather simple in these pictures, but I think it will be effective when it's all painted up. Edited October 1, 2013 by Art Laski
Art Laski Posted October 1, 2013 Author Posted October 1, 2013 I also started on the trunk hinges. This is my first brass and solder foray when it comes to models, as little as it is! Thanks for looking!
Mooneyzs Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Art.... It's great to see you back on this Brother!! That hinge work is looking very nice. Looking forward to the next update.
gasser59 Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Oh my this is looking great Art. You are a true ARTist and glad to see you doing something a bit different. Injectors will look great sticking up out of the flat hood. Serious fabrication and I'm in for the long haul. Something coming up in April?
Art Laski Posted October 4, 2013 Author Posted October 4, 2013 Thanks, Brad! I would love to have this out there in April.
gasser59 Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Thanks, Brad! I would love to have this out there in April. Me too Art, me too.
Mooneyzs Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 Art... even if it isn't finished for the DSC in April, you need to bring it...lol but would be awesome if you did complete it. I am still shooting on getting my Funny Car done by then... Actually I would love to have it done for NNL West .
gasser59 Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 I seriously think Art has a better chance Chris and I wish you the best of luck. In reality, I would love to see them both completed and in person.
Alyn Posted October 5, 2013 Posted October 5, 2013 Just stumbled across this one Art. Good to see you opening the panels. The detail gods are sucking you in The trunk hinges are looking great. Bonus points for using the brass flat strip.
Art Laski Posted October 5, 2013 Author Posted October 5, 2013 I seriously think Art has a better chance Chris and I wish you the best of luck. In reality, I would love to see them both completed and in person. Um, yeah, me too... On both counts

I probably would have been done by now if I had just left it stock, but I think I'll appreciate it in the end. Thanks for looking, Alyn!
PowerPlant Posted October 5, 2013 Posted October 5, 2013 Truly amazing work so far, Art! I look forward to progress on this one... I'm especially interested in what you'll be doing with those flame masks
my80malibu Posted October 5, 2013 Posted October 5, 2013 Excellent work on the Hinges Art. I will be watching for more updates.

On both counts Trust me I am going to try my hardest and build my butt off so I can have the funny car finished at the DSC I need to finish it so I can start other builds ...

I'm especially interested in what you'll be doing with those flame masks Thanks for looking in, Matija! I'm still thinking about how I'm going to paint the body, but I am looking forward to trying the masks. I really appreciate all the great comments, guys. Trust me I am going to try my hardest and build my butt off so I can have the funny car finished at the DSC I need to finish it so I can start other builds ... I think you can do it, Chris!
Art Laski Posted October 6, 2013 Author Posted October 6, 2013 I finished the trunk fab work, so it's just about time to start painting this thing up and getting to building. I saw a reference of a Willy's that had trunk bracing and some upholstery padding in between and I liked the look, so I thought I would try to duplicate it.
John Teresi Posted October 6, 2013 Posted October 6, 2013 Art......love the look of the trunk........hell,I love everything about this build.
Shardik Posted October 6, 2013 Posted October 6, 2013 Art......love the look of the trunk........hell,I love everything about this build. Ditto!
