Fantastic! SEM stuff is so nice, but you're absolutely right, it's only as good as your prep. Everything looks great! Nice job!

Those interior pieces came out great. Nice, nice, nice work!
I used paint pens for the faux chrome pieces as well. A few years in, and it's still holding up nicely. Used them on the radio bezel too, I think.

Interior stuff is fun.

Nice! Glad you were able to save the door and quarter trim, as that is the early design not available in the reproductions. I have two sets of that in not great shape that I have to figure out how to deal with for my 69.

Man time flies when you're having fun lol
Just realized I have been enjoying this car a lot but have not updated this thread for a very long time.
The car is everything I was hoping when we started this build and more , drives and sounds great has tons of torque and works extremely well with the ZX auto box and subbie 3.54 , i'm actually surprised how well everything works together. I can easily spin the rear wheels with a just a little tap of the brake pedal and can do an easy burnout with just a slight hold of the pedal

I'll do some updates later but in the meantime here's a couple quick video of when we finished the exhaust back in mid May
