Hi all here is tonights update

Hi all well got the masking done.

Man that car must be HUGE!!!! Wow!

Hi all here is an update on this, only a quickie as we got in at 2 last night from our hols and I will be off to bed soon

Base colour on

Marbeling colour

Top colour

just got to give it a coat of varnish then let it dry before masking up.

Hi all last update for a week as on hols in the morning

Uprated the door hinges, no sag now

thought I better check clearances with the internals, as you can see only about 1/2 a mill clearance, that's a lucky one.

given her a coat of primer so she will have a week for that to fully cure

Paper clips will hold all of that weight and more. ;)

Hi all a small update on this

I used copper wire for this which I think is a bit too soft the door sags when opened so i think I will have to change it for some other sort of wire, I also think I need to move the hinge further back on the door so it clears the body better, but quite pleased for a first attempt at opening a closed door.

Well I know I shouldn't since we are off on hols in a couple of days but here is a start.

I've cut one of the doors out, just the boot, the other door and the inners to go.

me too big kit 

Looks like you have your work cut out for you.  Look forward to seeing the build.
