Looking at your pics reminded me the advantage of building a panel instead of a pickup. You don't have to hassle with the bed. Good work there Alvin, congrads... thumbs_up

With the only problem being, very few parts are reproduced when you get past the doors. From there on it can become one interesting experience after another headscratch dang grin

hiint: 2005 Eclipse has the color...or maybe its 2004/2006? I've got to find out. Most are telling me its not a good color for the panel...but its mine grin Its a gold, well maybe a coppery, well maybe in the right sunlight its a tangerine, or or or ...I think it has a lot of pearl in it?

It was to be white and called the Marshmellow Man, or Snoopy, to be brothers with SWRadial's white Casper. I guess now it'll just have to be a red headed step-brother wink

Yeah...but it will need to be really straight,these big slab sides can take a fair bit of work to get a good finish on.

Alvin, it looks like your body man knows what he's doing! it looks brilliant!
$$$$ spent now will pay off in the long run.
