I’ve kind of hit that place where I need to prep the body for paint, along with the interior door panels/inner wheel wells/front aprons (each side is one piece) and firewall, since it’s all body color on the car.

I decided this past weekend to play with the Tamiya weathering master kits to age the underside a bit after seeing a phenomenal build underway of an ’85 SVO Mustang. I didn’t go nuts with it, but I think it made a little bit of difference using some rust, soot, silver, and gun metal. Also drilled some holes in the firewall for the heater hoses after carving off the molded ones.

Hopefully, I’ll have a chance to get some color on the body parts and interior so I can press on with those. Also need to score some embossing powder to make some proper sheepskin seat covers.
