Yeah, I am really glad I found him. Also excited to get the body back to my place to start mocking everything up

2/3 of the way and out of glass/ resin. Hopefully be done early next week

 

[A10Driver]

Inside of top is done, next up one more layer on the top and then body work it

 

[A10Driver]

A couple more seams to fill on the top, should be rdy for body work this weekend

 

[A10Driver]

Top is basically complete with mock-up, blasting on Monday and epoxy priming as many parts as possible. Cleaning up the floor, and rotating tub to finish weld the bottom

 

[A10Driver]

B-pillar capped and re-inforced. Hoping to get body back next week

 

[A10Driver]

Decided to add another 1x3 between the a and b pillar to help tie it all together. I am trying to minimize body twisting, hopefully this will help with roll cage tied into the frame

Calling inside of top done. Any advice on lizard skin, raptor lining, monster lining, or headliner would be appreciated

After sanding, one more layer of mat, then woven

I'll add, I've used MonstaLiner on my 62 lower trim line, mirrors and grill.
