First off all, I'm only awake due to the rain lashing down outside & my wife snoring inside.

Zagmad - Can I ask, in the nicest way possible, what exactly did you think was going to happen to the panels?

Photoshop is great for giving you an idea of how things might look when the conversion work is done.

But it is very clear, well, to me at least, that your external panels do not line up with your internal donor car.

So the only way you will end up with a car that looks like your photoshopped image is if the panels are "cut and shut".

Highlights of the how the 250 SWB & Z300 were built in a similar way can be found here:

All the detailed development threads for most of the Tribute range can be found here:

http://www.madabout-kitcars.com/foru...ead.php?t=4623

Just take a look at all the finished cars on that thread and consider how great they look.

Then remember that everyone of those models started off looking the same way your car does now.

So please view this stage as a "work in progress" and keep the faith.

All the best, Paul.
