Wrong pix?  That doesn't happen when your craving sleep does it?  (There are times, the need of sleep deprives me typing skills!)  I always said, "I'll get enough sleep, when I'm dead" I suppose thats true! BUT you need some amount to function...................properly LOL UNLESS "Coffee'd up" and thats me ANY given time! Nah my lack of sleep is due to my granny needing help going to the bathroom at night, and having to wake my mother at set times for her meds. Some night I might get 5 hours in one go but that would require them to synchronise but since their women I'll just have to put up with it (no peace otherwise,lol) you're a good man Stitch! grill is lookin good  |

Sweet build coming along Stitch. You still have me deeply interested. If this is your first heavy scratch/fab build, your are really doing great. The biggest trick to these kind of builds is not being afraid to try things.

Its slow going but I'm learning loads from it. Next time I'll start at the front and work back from there. At least now the grille is shaped I can get the rest of the front done and since I have a shape to work from now it should go a bit quicker. Before this I had only swapped engines between kits and chopped and two doored a mk2 jaguar but it didn't turn out very well. I've got some more ideas for this that may or may not happen but at least now I can see progress when I'm working on it. There are a lot of other areas I can do differently but its just learning as I go and if it doesn't work remove and start over.

taking this out of the box again once I finish my 32 and renault. to get the curves I need to finish the body I'm going to cut up another vette(seriously, I only bought it for the grille and then my next 3 purchases had vette grilles with them,lol). Might also cut the cab about to make it wider and longer to fit the rest better. Decided not to worry about the underside too much other than smoothing the underneath of the fenders. Might even try and pull the cab forward for a coe look to stop it looking so strange. Then I'm cutting the leftover sides from the 1/12 57 chevy to give it a pick-up bed. i even have a colour picked out for it but for now its a secret

This has ended up being used to learn on SC, I will get it finished some time though but there's not any hurry on it.
