G'Day All Starting to get back into building by finishing of some stalled projects. Managed to finish of a Chuck Wagon (See finished Show Rods thread) Next up is a 56 Ford pickup in the Roth reincarnation. Put back in the box nearly ten years ago
 Looks like I tried to get the doors to fit better with some heat   Made right breakfast of this side as well. Obviously a slow learner.
 Some fit issues with the bonnet. No surprises there.
 Looks like fun. Not going back in the box this time.

Nice project. I did one a while ago. Word of advise, check the windshield fit, mine literally fell through the opening. Found out after it was painted and decaled.  Five minute epoxy and more bad words than my wife thought I knew and it's in. Keep posting progress pics! Paul |

Looking good so far! Got a plan on paint color? Looking to do it in white with the decals if they still work. Going to try the one that sits on the rear. If that works ok I will try the rest. |

Got it sitting on its wheels before trying to mount the body. Lots of red everywhere. Flocked the floor just to break it up. Tried a tuck and roll on the seat.    |

Was a bit concerned about the decals. The sheet looked pretty yellow.  Looks a lot yellower in real life. Tried the decal on the bed cover as i dont care if i loose that one. Seems the paper has only gone yellow. Let the fun begin.  |
