Wow, not a speck of dust to buff out.
Your prep work really shows..

You, sir, are amazing!!! And Fast!!! I sure wish I had your setup. I'd probably still be slow but at least I'd get more done!
Great work, Don!

That dead cow colour certainly compliments your paint scheme Don, see how you even have me now referring to leather as dead cow now.
. Did the car come with all the seats or has your uphostery man have to build them from scratch ?
I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

Awesome trim job and all credit to Tim's, very nicely executed. Certainly finishes the car off beautifully. Is there interior door handles to pull to close the doors ? I also noticed the lack of exterior door handles so does it have door poppers ? Sorry for the dumb questions Don but I am puzzled by the lack of things to swing on.

I have interior door pulls to install yet and yes has poppers, but may put exterior dummy handles on it. Originally Posted by Whiplash23T

Exterior dummy handles would sure frustrate a crook!.

The first model car I built was a 32 Ford roadster by Revell in the mid 50's.
How did you get hooked on cars?
