UPDATE 4/8

Better late than never?

Well, I finally found some time last weekend to work on my truck, and I decided enough was enough. I bit the bullet, and started hacking up some styrene to fill in the sides of the hood (I say "hack", because it wasn't exactly a science, or precise!) Anyway, I figure I can sand and putty my way out of an OCD breakdown!

Here is where I filled in the hood:







And I had to do a little mock-up! Keep in mind that this isn't how it will look when it is done, I still need to shift the front of the fenders up a bit to give it a lower position, and fit the bumper.









Finally, the aftermath of the horrific styrene-cutting sttempt!



Do any of those bits look squared? Nope.

More to come soon! I won't give any dates, because I know I can't keep it!

Looking less and less like a pipe dream...
