Here's a new pic of the progress. For some reason, I'm just not motivated to do much work on my models lately. I hacked up a pill bottle that happened to be the perfect diameter to make the rear wheel tubs, and one side is higher than the other for some reason. I cut right through the middle of it, but I must have been off a bit. It doesn't matter anyways, because the smaller half is just right, so I'll file the bigger half down to fit. You can barely see them in this pic.
I also ground down the door handles and laid down some primer. I'll have to buy some putty to finish off the door handle shave, and the tailgate handle will go too.
I had installed the firewall as a means to strengthen the body and to help locate the interior tub, but I realized just before the glue dried that the front tires interfered heavily with the firewall, so out it came again. I'll scratchbuild a flat one someday.




That's all for now.
