Thanks Shay!!

Liking the idea of a 'boat tail' but not wanting to spend a lot of time on it, in this my 'my return to the bench build'..... I Came up with this:

It still needs some reinforcing on the inside and a little filler too.

Not hard to tell where the idea came from:

So for my loyal fan, here is the latest update. I have two of these kits so I decided to sacrifice the rear wings of the other, to make cycle wings for this build:

The other kit will eventually be turned into a MG TC version of this MG M High Speed Service van of 1931:

Great progress! I really like the way the 'tub mod' of the body looks, valium or not, lol. The front fender cut down looks awesome as well.
