By the time the dash was done it was nearly solid styrene and too heavy for comping. What was I to do?  I stuck it on the vacuum former and lost some weight... and detail but I'm a comper now and I don't care about nice things.  I was on a roll so I made a clear windshield too.  Done. Let's comp.  | ||

Nice styrene bits. In the last pic it looks like the rear can be stretched a hair so the wheel is centered in the wheel well. Could just be the angle though.

My 5 day vacation from work starts today. Between yard work and working on the big FJ I'm going to try to work on this as much as I can. Dang, sounds like I'm not on vacation at all. Rough start on the door jambs.   I made a resin copy of the cowl vents because I didn't want to cut up the stock Nikko glass anymore than I had to.  I think it needs a snorkel. I'll make that today. | |
