The lining on those wheel wells is over the top Ken. The tail lights are a level of detail most probably won't think through, but if they do they will realize is just amazing that you achieved that level of consistency.

Spent another 7 1/2 hours in the shop today working on the build. Got a couple of ladders made as well as the engine block, the rails for that block and 2 pump panels. I'm always amazed at how long it takes to make these pieces but I had a good day in the shop none the less.
Great job. I'm enjoying the process.
Crazy cool! I love your build threads!

I would think that pump panel took up most of your time today. Looking good.
Very cool Ken - I love how clean and crisp the detail is.
Awesome!!!!
He forgot to get out the Dust Buster before taking that shot! Look at that y'all his tools do make dust!!

This one doesn't count. It's on a piece of sandpaper that's mounted to 3/4" MDF. The piece was just sanded flat. Even I'm not OCD enough to vacuum sandpaper!!!!!!!
Okay, well maybe I have vacuumed sandpaper once or twice.......BUT ONLY WHEN NECESSARY!!!!!

Spent 8 1/2 hours working on the build today. I managed to get the front wheel wells all cut and glued into place as well as the large running boards and steps. I also got the front bench seat shaped and installed as well as the 2 rear seats. I started in on the front grill and front panel of the truck but didn't have enough time to get it completed so I guess that will be tomorrow's project. The wheel wells were a real pain in the butt as they ended up being assembled and glued together and then they were slid into place, almost like a puzzle piece. Had to be really careful to be accurate. Anyway, that's it for another day. More to come tomorrow.
