Pinto Modified
« on: January 15, 2018, 01:43:23 PM »
Starting with the old Ridge Runner Pinto kit but I am making it more like one of Ed Flemke's or Richie Evans types. Filled in the wheel wells and extended the door panels and then carved out the lower window openings.


Re-cut the rear wheel wells and moved them forward and shaved off the bottoms of the door panels.

Added a full 1/4" to the roof length front-to-back.


Did some smoothing, cut the front door panels back and opened up the rear wheel wells a little more. Also got the firewall trimmed down and in place. Most of the main body work is done and now I can begin to get the motor, hood, radiator and other items up front working to match.

Looking very good David. I really enjoy seeing the way you do your body modifications. I learn something from almost everyone of your builds. Now if I could just remember it later, when I could use the things I learned.
