Question:-
Do you want the Hood all Smoothed out or like it is in the pictures with all the welds showing?

Good question. I think it would look best if it was like the 1:1. I am going to do the paint like it, so it would be perfect to leave the welded look.

After seeing the Plymouth he built, I feel it's in good hands!

I have a 1:1 65 sitting in my garage. I've been waiting for a body to be made so I could do something similar. I'll be watching and anticipating the final product.

And NO, the 1:1 is not for sale.

Lets get cracking and after quite alot of head scracthing here's where I'm at.

Shon is going to build the tube chassis like the picture which presents me with a problem.
How to get the Cab On and Off as the Tubework goes through the Rear of the Cab.


So here's what I have come up with.
2 Pieces
This Piece will get Fixed inside the Tubework probably with Small Bolts.
I have put the Cutouts in for the bars.


This Piece which will have the Sides and Roof and rest of the body attached to it will slide over it (thats the plan!!)


So you'll end up with this (bottom edge not done yet it needs a curve added)
This is the only way I can see you could do this so that the body could be removed.
No any other shout up now

I don't see anything that needs to be changed. I'll add tabs to the tube work to mount the cab back. Do continue

If you do them on the Inside of the cab you wont see them I'll add some styrene in some chosen locations to give you some options.

Continuing Now Sir
