Great work again.

I am actually glad to see the problems with the doors - the window frame on mine was broke. When I bought it!

Thank you Erik!

The chrome frame? Mine is broken too, on the driver side, still when it was on the tree!

Amazing detail Brizio! I commend you on your attention to things that are often overlooked!

Keep up the great work! :)

Thank you Ken! :)

This is looking really good ,you make it look easy but I know it is difficult to fix . I can't wait too see it done.

Thank you Randy! It was difficult and time consuming for sure. I'm glad I did not follow the instruction, because they tell you to put the hinges on the door first and after glue them to the car. If you do that the door will hit everywhere and pull down when open.

Some more progress... :)

Hinge glued, some putty, ready for some sand paper for remove the inside design/panel, that they are wrong, they are suppose to be in negative not positive.

This will help the hood to looks more realistic.

Also the rear door need some sanding, those positive panels need to be gone and be made flat.
