      This is going to be a pretty cool project. I like the looks of this model truck. Really looks like your headed in the right direction, can't wait to see the finished product.

      Moving into the door mods we're installing one piece glass to eliminate the wing windows and part of the process is filling the gap where the wing window frame was. Once the door was gutted we found it to be quite flimsy, so while we were fixing up this top area we also built some support structure inside each door. We're also using Kindigit flush door handles and got the inner structures TIG welded in. Just a little more sheet metal work left and then on to finish body work.

      Yes. I'm old and have little memory so if it was posted earlier, I apologize.

      The cab is getting close to starting the finish body work, meanwhile the bed has been hammered and dollied and had a slight skim coat of metal glaze run over the surface, and then is sanded to perfection. The bed is almost done, and the next step will be to bed line the underside.

      Body work is rolling along, the bed and fenders are done with smoothing the panels and are in epoxy awaiting primer and block sanding, while the cab is now in the body booth. Final paint and assembly is starting to appear as a light at the end of the tunnel, and we're all excited to see things progressing towards that.

      Ben,

      I like the design. It is modern, but not so much that it loses its classic lines.

      I need to hire you to draw my Nova in its full slammed road race trim. I want to keep hints at its true heritage, but make it a real open road contender.

      Even though this was a new fender it still takes some effort to get that sheetmetal perfectly straight. A skim coat and block sanding does the trick and will help accentuate the truck's flowing lines and BMW blue hue. Door handle pockets for the Kindigit flush handles are near finished too.

      Nice job! What gauge sheet metal are you using for the firewall/engine compartment?

      Yes Wayne, but after trying to deal with inner structure and hinge placement rather then cut up the hood they'll be made from billet and mainly a visual enhancement.

      Metal straightening and main body work is complete, a coat of epoxy primer has been laid down and the fine body work commences!
