man looks like you got a great start
i like the styrene on the roof and hood, looks much better than putty
don't forget to fill in the lines on the fenders they are for a tilt front end
tube work looks good and i like were your going on the interior.
i didn't catch it are you going to leave it droop?
oh and the frame rails look nice and straight, what did you use to cut them with? most i see are wavy yours is not

like i said looks great, i will keep an eye on this one for sure

The needle works very well. Controlled and does not leak. The dremel is an XPR 400 it does everything I need it to do

Haha, I had no idea I needed to fill those lines in. I have been cleaning them out each time. Thanks!

I plan to leave it droop due to loving the low stance. I dont care for the jacked up look at all.

I cut the frame with my drill press. I chucked a cutoff wheel in it and used the drill press table as a guide. Took forever and a day but It worked.

Thanks for the feedback!

The recaro seat I got from ebay, user ID Bufftruck. But if I was you I would head over to RPP hobby they carry them now.
