99 and 44/100th percent done?
Finally done after all these years! The retro look is in: Front (above), Side (below) I had mixed feeling about being done. The more I thought about it, the more I knew that something was wrong. What really bothered me was that I could not quite put my finger on the problem. It is the side that really seems off. I just do not like the vertical line between the aluminum front and the wood side panels. So I pulled a photo into "paint" and tried some ideas. It looks like I can fix it up fairly easily. Idea (so far): Just that little piece, to blend the front to the side, seems to do wonders. In additon, there is a black plastic cap between the interior and exterior that I will change to aluminum. With a little luck these small changes can be done in a reasonable amount of time. If history is any lesson it will be a while :-( ! If you have any ideas, please download a photo and try it out in your favorit photo editor. I am open to suggestions!
