Not really any I want to "Share" ATM :P. The rear clip is in fiberglass. The widebody panels are in fiberglass. My tailights have been mocked, just need a few more hours to finish the taillight panel. Its looking really good, but I lost my internet service on my home PC, so I am unable to post pictures if I wanted to.

However it does look amazing.

Yes, it will be a choptop / targa still. The frame is booked for a chemical strip , and the work to be done in march. I'll be stripping the frame in the next few weeks, so I hope to have before pictures soon. I am still "iffy" about posting some of the ones I have.. lol I kinda like the suspense. Maybe I'll post a couple teasers when I get get someone in to fix my internet.

Best of luck,
Chase.

That looks great. That would tie into the scoop really well because the sailpanel scoop is layed out almost exact to that, perhaps a little larger.

Alright, you've earned a few pictures. After I have a couple layers on this rear end, the car will be stripped to the bare frame for storage. Hopefully I can snap a few pictures with most of the pieces I made mocked in place on the car. Its coming along, like always. Just requires alot of time. I want to have the frame finished before I do really any more major things on it. Simply because these panels will be molded together, and IF I go along with the choptop, (still undecided.. If its worth the trouble) I'll have to obviously modify this rear clip for those purposes.

The first couple are with the fiberglass cloth covering the panels, the second is of the resin laid over them. I'm currently working on my laptop, which I got a router for because my PC still isn't working properly... sigh.








Enjoy.

*In case you are wondering what it takes to make something like this.. still.. lol
I have these supplies on reserve;
75 Paint Brushes (1$ / 4 from the dollar store )
10 Gallons of Resin ( 130$ / 5 Gallons from my body shop)
10 Tubes of Liquid Hardner (About 4$ / Tube)
3 Boxes of rubber gloves ( 15$ / Box of 50)
5 8x2 Sheets of Foam (20$ / sheet)
10 Rolls of duct tape (4$ / roll)
And whenever I need it, two friends that are willing to help duct tape large parts (Priceless)

that's looking great chase. i REALLY like the window fie ro photoshopped, the line on the window flows PERFECTLY with the line of the side scoop. looks really nice imo. the rear end however looks too heavy to me. looks like it needs a diaper change...

oh yeah, dollar store rocks, i bought 20 brushes yesterday, for 5.70 hehe.

What do you mean?

I like that rear end. do you think you could lay out like in paint or something where the rear window will be? I think the diaper comment was in reference to the thickness and the fact that the fiberglass is hanging off. once you sand and paint that I think that will look very nice. You are going to mold it together? or is that the rest of the pannels, and the rear will go up like a hatchback? keep up the good work!

Not the best angle but you get the idea
