Yeah the kit does come with masks for the glass sections so you can paint the doors but why bother , seems like just another step , I mean you're gonna paint the doors anyway . So instead of just painting the doors and using/or not using seperate clear parts , now I have to drill out some...

Way ahead of ya Pup . There is no kit engine but I'm leaning on a closed hood anyway . The really big , big suck factor is the clear doors , one solid piece , no option for open windows . More work !!! ......... I drilled out the wing window , now for the door window , rinse and repeaat on the...

Starting to scratch build the ladder rack .

Yeah Greg , go for it show us your progress man !!!

Ian , I'm closer to 80 yrs old than 70 so this ..................... Just as an explanation at my end so I don't seem like a complainer...... when I load your post each photo comes in for the whole page, which means all the other photos you have posted previously as well on that page, which...

Greg , the Glidden Max Flex shinning armor is on with the mist of red/brown primer . Next I stipple the color on the left , cinnamon stick , then I stipple the color in the middle , terra cotta , followed up by the color on the right , cinnamon .

Well , whatever I did it loaded instantly like the way I've been doing it , no difference in loading time , it just popped right up . I don't know what to tell you , when I dowmload the photos from my camera I resize them 50% smaller than the original . Looks like two options didn't even take...

Ian , it's been said in the past , seems like outside of the U.S. some folks have to wait forever for images to load on my posts . I have no problem when I look at my posts , I mean it doesn't load as fast as I would do a shot of Jack Danials but it's not slow . I use Imgur as my photo host and...

Almost forgot , Glidden Max Flex rattle can spray paints are highly , highly recommended . Ya gotta shake the hell outta them for a real good spell but they spray like air brushses . They also dry to touch in less then a minute and I've painted/washed over them with acrylics in just as little...

Next up will be making a Chevy contractor pickup . Ak 's kit excellent fit , minimal to no seam lines , zero flash . Highly recommended .

Ok , now it's done , .......... cept I forgot to put some bluing on the pipes and a wash on the beat up cooler .

Thanks man , like me grandmother used to say when I wanted something , " Put shat in one hand and want in the other and let me know which one gets heavier first " .

Basically done , still gotta figure out what I'm gonna do with the rear fender , stowage ? , seat ? and I gotta add a front brake cable .

Don't look like it's in the rib cage to me ......................

I can't remember if this was an " in progress " build by the guy , ............ where's the gas tank ?

Pretty much , you can get crazy with custom stuff tho . It also depends on what type of bike you ride . I'd love to try and build this one of these days , actual bike owned by a guy in the Netherlands , if I remember correctly .

Ok , the horror show part of this is over . The only way I would continue on with this was if I could scratch a convincing extended front " chopper " fork . Far from perfect but I've got pretty low standards , if it looks like a duck , walks like a duck and quacks like a duck ...
