Getting ready to start painting. I'm doing something different with this body. I'll be cutting out the hood, doors and rear hatch and intsalling hinges on them. I'll use rare earth magnets to keep them closed while running the car. We'll see how this shakes out...

Thank you!

An old thread but a good one... can anyone advise how the light buckets attach to the inside of the shell... Glue or taped in place?
Double sided tape will do the trick.
