Paul, the detail is just amazing, all the small little touches really makes the difference.    The front fender edge looks brilliant, the windshield truss bar, the hood rivets, Lucas Tri-bar headlights, paint matched side air vents, ferrules on the doors for side curtains, ferrules for soft top frame behind the seats, and .... is that a street-car ashtray in front of the shifter?!

this will, no doubt, be the highest quality Hurricane build yet, IMO ...   inspires me to get back and do some refining, finishing touches on my beast.

Paul, thanks for the update. I was thinking last night to bump you for an update. You must have sensed it. As Bob said it is fantastic. What color are the seats and interior? You sure have set the bench mark pretty high!!

Very nice Paul. Love the body header exit as the original had. Great details all around. Enjoy!!

Winter has allowed me to catch up on some of the details that weren't crucial to getting the car on the road - but are important to a finished build.

Door cards and hinge covers and a nearly finished interior.

Looks great, Paul!   Will you be selling the door hinge covers?  I'm interested...

Bobby,
I could pull a set for you the next time I do some vacuum forming, but it depends if your hinges are the same size as mine. I got the parts from Hurricane but welded them myself.

Measure the outside to outside of the two straps and give me a dimension to determine if the mold will work with yours.
