Here's how i do door lines and trunk lines... I use a piece of masking tape as a out line and use just the tip (first blade) on a razor saw, this way you have control which way it will go,start out by going lightly all the way across acouple times....... When i am done cutting i pull the tape up i grab my smooth foam sand board and hit the edges alittle, then clean up with a tooth pick.........might have to repeat this step acouple times.....     |

Progressed alittlle more on this build..... The 1970 Grill i back dated to represent a 1969 Custom 500 grill instead of the 1970..thank god they didnt change it much in the one year change over.......... I added rust here and there, and installed the light bar which is rusty. one cherry is missing,proby because it was either needed for another cruizer or broken off. It will be missing its fron seat and some of the engine parts will be present. and nothing under the hood,except for maybe hoses and wiring........... Not alot of details will go into the interior tub,but one never knows.......something may happen and it will get some more details....... The chassis has been very rusted..........likes its been sitting around along time or years of service , (speedo read 300, some thousand miles) and pretty much all of it was hard miles...........      |

Waaaaaay cool!!! With the work you put into it, it would also have made a clean running car. But this form of it is very cool. Great job.
