well i did a little more work on it did a little more trimming on the rear, got the back end glued back together, made some new rear tubes, and made a rear cover still need to make rear inner fender wells, clean up body lines, and make spare tire mount then i think im done with it besides lights and just building the rest of the rig

It looks good except for the cheesy spoiler on the back. Can't wait to see it all painted up.
