Man, finding bench time has been tough lately. The desire is finally back, but this recent warm weather we just had here made it hard to be inside at the bench. Between great recreation weather and needing to get preparations for the coming winter complete I just haven't been at the bench much.
However, progress has been made. I'm hoping I should be able to get this one wrapped up this weekend.

These would have been finished this weekend except for the fact that I found I was missing a key part(s) for each. However, progress was made. Finished up the interior and got that installed in the body. Seats are from an original issue AMT 57 Chevy, mounted on top of a pair of old steel wheels to give them the correct height. Other than that and the tonneau, it's just simple paint detailing. No, hold on. Did I say "THESE" up there at the top of the update? Why, yes I did. I bought this green painted survivor from Don last year. All it needed was to be reassembled since a few items came loose over the years. I robbed a few spare parts out of this kit to help complete the black car, and decided now was the time to put this old beauty back together. Once I get these missing parts in the mail these will be finished up and placed On The Shelf

LOL Thanks for the interest Duane and Les. Like I said, these are nearly done so I'll do a full photo spread when they're 100% Les, I need 39 headlights for the black one and one more wheel cover for the green one. But parts are already on their way thanks to Facebook. Thank you for the offer my friend
