I didn't know the hardtop kit included the uptop from the convertible kit.
Three of these going at one time is awesome!
Carry on, dudes!

Cleaned up most of the seam lines. Little to none on flash on this kit. Trying out some custom wheels to see the stance. Here's the Parts Paks 354 Six-Pak next to the stock 390 Tri-Power. This is fun. Haven't decided if I want to cut the top off and use the Rag Top instead. Didn't come with the window glass, so would have to make one. No big deal.

You know me, may change the mind several times, but the ride height is important.

I like those wheels, too! Sorta look like Buick Wildcat wheels from the sixties.

Bought them off a guy who casts them as Salt Flats wheels. Hard to find tires for.

A little more done. Engine colored up. Still a ways to go. The air cleaner is dry fitted.      Got some wheels and tires too.  That's all for now.  AAACW |

Thanks, Joe. I need to pay more attention to the seams. This white plastic is really hard for me to see.  |

White is tough sometimes... try laying a black piece of paper or cardboard on your bench... should help define the pieces easier mu friend...
