MY built continu, today i still worked on my chassis. I install some additional hood support and scratchbuilt a bracket for the dasd board!


This is permit to maintain in correct place the dash, becaus when you play with resin this need to made a lot modification and , of course, a lot of test fit.


Also worked on the two front cage mount, i use Evergreen rod, he look bettrte now!





This side view permited to see then new cage mounting fir very more better with squared Fairlane body!


After i worked to extended the rear section of the chassis then joint the rear bumper!




That's it for today, don't mist the next SHOP REPORT on this forum...

The project didn't stop, always goes up front!!!!

I install a new Quick change rear end


First i have to remove the older ome from the suspension part.


I remove everything, i just keep the suspensions.



With mt Dremel i worked on my part to made an half round fopr the differential housing....


And now he fit perfectely....


I use a super glue to gluing in place the suspension, for the application i use my faviorite tool, a touth pick...


Everything is ok! and right on his place!!!


I give some times to a glue for drying....




Step #2;


With the nice resin part like my fuel cell this need then openned the rear trunk.


When is open, i install fours supports pin to maintasin in place ther truck cover


I know then i have a niciest gas cap, but he is too much higner, this need then i scratchbuilt one for Evergreen rod

Wow Daniel, a lot of great work going on here! Thank you for posting all of the progress pics and for explaining what you are doing. Can't wait to see this one when you have it finished.

[fireguy14]

Good progress and great work Daniel!

Out standing work Looks like its going to be a AWESOME build KUTGW. thanks for sharing

[harron68]

Looking most excellent! Glad you took the time to make it super-detailed. Wheels, carb, it's all going to be something when done! I'd choose small block as more true to the era, but you can make it a dream machine going large too. Good luck, but with your skill you won't need it!
