Looks AWESOME! Great job! I know a lot of the forum members like to "preserve patina" but I like what you did better. (I might think otherwise in some totally original survivor cases).

I definitely like a good patina, but there was no way on this rig. Totally rotten and second paint anyway.Looks AWESOME! Great job! I know a lot of the forum members like to "preserve patina" but I like what you did better. (I might think otherwise in some totally original survivor cases).
Haha. That’s so funny my wife pointed that out last night! I think it’s a fireworks box, but I never had the contents so who knows where it came from. Still in bed drinking coffee recovering from yesterday. Going to have to go out and investigate that in a little bit.Great build, just read through your thread! Looks like you've touched just about every part of the rig! The console looks great, just was wondering where you got the hydrogen bomb??
Excellent! Document and take lots of photos. I look forward to following.WOW, read through your whole thread. Just top notch sir! I am now order panels and study your photos on the mid section very close, that’s where my biggest issues are. Then side panels and all four door lowers. Any like you, leaving the body on the frame.
A few tips when working with mdf…So tunes…did a lot of thinking about where to mount speakers. Nothing ideal but settled on the back corners. I’m not the best woodworker but whittled some boxes out of MDF and happy with how they turned out. Zip tied to the roll bar.
No back to them and filled the hole with some thinsulate insulation that I had left from a different project. 6” speakers…lacking bass but they work ok.
