AS soon as I saw you had replied last in this thread on the main page I thought to myself "I know he said something about updates in one thread" and bygolly, I was right! If its such a problem Mike, just merge the two threads.

Anyway, Im diggin the tubbed minivan look. Keep up the good work. BTW, are those Jada wheels?

Re: Update on Project Dodge Caravan

Looking at it this question came to mind. Do you have to get in using the rear doors? Because you smoothed out the front doors.

You are right, the front doors did not open originally. Now that I think about it, I might change that. Right now I'm working on the front and rear bumpers. Every time I think I'm ready to start painting I come up with some new idea about something I want to change or add, I bet I'm not the only one this happens to.

I don't know why you think its funny but this being my first project ever, I'm happy with it so far...I'm learning as I go, and I still have a long way to go. If being different means being funny, well then I'm a comedian.
