Now that i've got some of the painting and gluing of parts done, I am going to start primering the steering wheel rim and the dashboard in White, before applying my chosen interior color.

Hey rob, looking good, just wanted to let you know that it looks like from the pic that you have the rear buggy spring upside down.

[robjos32]

Thanks Dan for that information.

[Don Garrett]

Are you going to box the frame rails on this one Rob or leave them open? Nice clean work so far.

[robjos32]

I am undecided as of now regarding the chassis?.

[Don Garrett]

I was looking at the colors you've been using so far and got to thinkin'....If you painted the rails lime green along with what you already have and did the body pearl white with a light tan interior and tan chopped soft top...it would be one super sharp, uncluttered car. It would stand out in it's simplicity, sometimes less is more if you know what I mean. Just a thought.

Hi Rob,
You have the axle assembly lying upside down. The straight part of the Halibrand quickckange should face the ground as should the rear radius rods. Turn the assy over, then mount your spring on top. I've included a pic of my real Halibrand......Mike
