had the hood, trunklid and doors cut out... broke one sideskirt from the fender :-(http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r107/andregrek/IMG_0555.jpghttp://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r107/andregrek/IMG_0557.jpghttp://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r107/andregrek/IMG_0551.jpg

prepared where trunk lid will sit and got the seperated clear windows from windshield...http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r107/andregrek/IMG_0559.jpghttp://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r107/andregrek/IMG_0558.jpghttp://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r107/andregrek/IMG_0560.jpg

got chassis engine parts and suspension and shock painted flat black...http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r107/andregrek/IMG_0576.jpg

so, painted calipers in red and got the discs in silver and weathered a bit. painted the shocks in red also and assembled the front suspension. In the photo you can see some red on the disc brake also... that already has been sorted :)http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r107/andregrek/001%20model%20nissan%20skyline%20jgtc%20custom/IMG_0577.jpghttp://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r107/andregrek/001%20model%20nissan%20skyline%20jgtc%20custom/IMG_0578.jpghttp://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r107/andregrek/001%20model%20nissan%20skyline%20jgtc%20custom/IMG_0580.jpg

work on body is progressing also...couple of pics. Also flush the trunk lid but not quite happy with the gap. I was thinking of repairing with putty.. any suggestions? The front fender also needs a couple rounds of putty and wet sandinghttp://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r107/andregrek/001%20model%20nissan%20skyline%20jgtc%20custom/IMG_0581.jpghttp://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r107/andregrek/001%20model%20nissan%20skyline%20jgtc%20custom/IMG_0583.jpghttp://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r107/andregrek/001%20model%20nissan%20skyline%20jgtc%20custom/IMG_0584.jpg
