Got the fiberglass rear bumper fitted (very roughly). It's going to take a lot of work to be right.
I made some trim panels to go where the door window rear seals would have gone. This car won't have door windows except for the vent windows. In the front of the door, I test fit the window channels after I welded up the channel, sanded the welds and polished with aluminum polish. I also got the top vinyl installed. The pictures probably won't be in order of this description, but you can sort 'em out. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Look like 16/6 on front and back.
The bumpers look super good. They look like chrome in the pictures. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

I did the carpet myself. I went to a bulk carpet retailer, found some charcoal loop I liked, cut it out and took it to a local awning manufacturer to be bound in nylon.

Nice looking cars guys.
FYI: Alsa Corp sells a "chrome" paint that will fool many people. Unlike the stuff sold in hardware stores, this stuff really looks like chrome. |
