Finally got my arse in gear and finished the window runners this week, bonded them in this morning. I've made the window templates so I'll order some lexan and get on with that next week.

...order some 'lean'.... is that lightweight lexan?

No it's poxy autocorrect, i really need to turn that off...

Been agonising for ages about the dash, it was just too spartan. Decided to take it too the Supernationals at the weekend and get "Nefarious" to pinstripe it, he added a silver line and a cartoon radio which I really like. Just trying to decide if that's enough or to go the whole hog and have him apply the heater controls, glovebox door and ashtray...

That looks really cool but needs a little more IMO. The right hand side looks a little bare. Shame the Valiant doesn't have a name script on the dash like the Barracuda. That would have done the trick.
Love it, great idea. I'd do the glove box door, ashtray, heater controls, etc. You could even take some subtle liberties with the text - for example on the heater have 'hot' and 'hotter', or any variation you care to have!
