scratch building a firenza/cavalier f/c body

[JOHNNERS]

I posted my first attempt at building a firenza/cavalier f/c body, and said when I started another I would take pix, here goes:

started with a Revell/Momogram olds body from miller kit

cut out hood bulge

filled gap with sheet plastic, do it now to keep body strength

cut off roof, to deepen side windows, narrow roof

i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd170/harefield99/album%202/DSCN0142.jpg

cut out complete back section, leave floppy, this is handy when lining everything up with new sheet

i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd170/harefield99/album%202/DSCN0144.jpg

refit two roof parts at desired height with tubes to support, fill gap with sheet, cut flat sheet to run from roof to rear to give fastback, fit new sheet for rear panel and side panels

i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd170/harefield99/album%202/DSCN0146.jpg

trim all panels and fill as necessary. I will send more pix as I go, this will be the John Force Coca Cola Cavalier. the first body is a Miller Lite Firenza, waiting on white decal paper to do hood logo
