Surgery is a success!!





Test fitting my idea what I'm trying to achieve. With a little bit of work to attach it, I think it's gonna work out just fine. There will be some body shaping on the attachment to make it work.






This will be a long term project because I don't want to rush it. I still have a lot of thinking and plotting on how to make this a solid build. If you have any advice, ideas, & suggestions, by all means I'd like to hear them.

Well done Doctor

Very nice!!!

Love the turn out. Lemme tell ya man. There'll be other things that will be affected and need to be addressed along the way but don't loose the vision bro. Just keep the patience and work around / with the obstacles. Lookin' good buddy.

No doubt there will be some “What Would MacGuyver Do?” moments.

That body line is really going to work. I'm lovin it...

This is gonna be sweet.

Some progress made tonight for the bed portion of the build.

Looking at various parts within this Nomad kit, I spied something that would be perfect to extend the bed of the Nomad "El Camino". This is actually the back piece to the rear seats. This is lightly glued in place to test fit. Yeah.... that's gonna work just fine.




But.... I need something that's gonna give me support to hold it place. So... I sawed off a front section of the "folded rear seat option part and sanded a curve with my Dremel to conform with the tranny hump. Here are the results of the "chop job".

The test fit and glued on with satisfaction...




Top portion glued in place. Oh yeah... that's definitely gonna work.
