Man thats cool ,love the angled pillar look , The lines work well on the EJ better than Id imagine on an EH .
I think the roof is a little to full on the rendering but doesnt seem it on the car ,bubbletop impalas are pretty thin ....
I remember a rendering in street machine (pale yellow from memmory) was that yours ? it had an EJ reversed aswell so the tail light square became the headlights etc .
A purple HR coupe , Had an EK in there too but cant remember it....
Cheers Sunny Rob I just locked it in ,no more bets
No worries Thommo the banter is part of the fun

Ratbox I do know you like it

yes it does, i know it's only drawing but where it starts to curve down and along the window line looks a little sharp but that's being picky

Haha Mark ,a good belly laugh from that hehe.
Thanks smqqth Im liking the curve in the gutter line but I like a sharper line at the base , a compromise would be good so Ill drop that little return curve down half way from where it is now - where the sharp line would be .
Ive got plans for a split front bench J , torana LH lower half and jap uppers but they will fold as per american coupes (outer side tilts away from the door)
Tuck n roll dunno ,Im liking snake skin thanks to Mez and an episode of overhaulin.
The custom grille will be making an appearance .
and the lace might end up ghosted flames yet , but Id always planned to lace it ..
And the antenna on the roof is now a definite
Has ayone got any ideas on a petrol cap ,I like the position of the original and the dome style but I think id prefer a slightly larger version and a flusher fit ?

i like both finishes on the gutter line, but i personally think that the way youve got it with the sharper point matches the car better, especially the fins

sounds nice Harko....
always love the cars you are creating - really wanted that Big Block FC 'NoMAD' you had been creating, and for a fuel flap option all i can think of is go for a fuel flap door, they always look clean & neat or go for the chevy behind the taillight...but might get the same problem with fumes....
Cheers

would love to write BUMP but alas Ill be writing Pause instead .
I am not OK with waiting on anything , If something has to be done its gotta get done right now , So I pulled the EK out of the workzone today and slid the HZ panelvan into its spot ,Gotta finish the paintjob and rego it - long story but here goes ....I was hiring out a pressure cleaner from the local hire mob the other day ,I said Ill need an around 3000 psi jobbie ,He tells me they are all out and would I be OK with a 2000 psi jobbie , Nah man dont downsize Ill upgrade to the 4000 psi model and be carefull not to cut the cement
So he wheeled it out and after one look I realised it wadnt gonna squeeze into the boot of the corolla

better dowgrade me champ I aint got a mancar
and on top of that I had to get a mate to let me drive his landcruiser the other day to empty my trailer
