Nice job on the door, just need a pic from further back to see the proportions better.
Wheels are very cool, I would use them, Trev 8) .

The rims arent all they seem .

They are an old set of cheap mesh simmons that I always loved the smooth alloy rim on , the moons are &*#@ baby's that I scored cheap at a swap and the centre backing is what I was running on my FC cut down , I had damaged three of them from putting wheels up against cars and they fell over :oops: denting the centre :) I knew theyd be good for something :)
Just gotta work out how to attatch em.

Heres something thats shitting me , Its bearable but noticable to me on sedans , How the front door runs upward on the top edge as it runns to the rear , then the rear door runs downhill to correct it back to the quarter panel :roll:
When extending the doors it radically emphasises it and it needs changing I think.

Image
the camera shot is eying it up and it runs up above the quarter .
Image
A little less noticable now but check it out with the shortened rear skin...
Image
Im planning on cutting along the top of the door and dropping the swage to run parralel all the way back to the hump in the rear door , Then try to blend it so it has a slight kink along the lines of a 57 chev

Harko have you thought about removing the scalloped section in the doors (at the top) and I think you're right you need to taper it to the rear instead of running uphill.

Looking real good though. 8)
