welp plans just changed, i decided that it would be better to do this in the summer since i would have to paint the two doors and the hatch, i may as well paint the whole car. keepin the tropic orange but i need more money to do that. so, yea, plans are still afoot but this will give me more time to get things together and the paint wont have to deal wth the salt and snow.

Ive had experience shaving but not on this car. we shaved a courier(project truck) of the handles, gas door, and tailgate latch. we also molded in a hand made roll pan, it looked good for a first time project, lot of bondo though due to ugly welds.
