Ala-Kart builds

Just got a kit and am very excited to get started. Its not the old 2 car kit just the new one. I searched  Ala-Kart and have read all thru the forum about the hood and undersized motor but I dont think I care, the acticles from the rebuild shop that re-did the car in 2006-08 seem to like the new changes in the kit. Other things are much better such as the front & rear suspension and decals.

The one thing I am most courious about is the sides of the bed. I got some gold foil but the bed sides are partially hidden under the rear fenders, it will hide the bed sides when it will be installed.  Have you guys cut out the rear fender supports when building.  I have 30-40 pictures of the car and the wall under the fender exposes the bed side. I also have the pics Brizo's shop took while re-assembling the truck.

I havent start anything yet - finishing a 37 Ford sedan right now. Should start by weeks end.

What I would be interested to see is your builds and here any comments about assembling the kit. Nothing recent is on the forum.

I build mostly 20"s - 30"s fords and all the El Camino's (and a few others)
