When the nose piece is tilted up onto the front pod the angle of the front windshield gets determined by how much angle is on those front pieces. My first two tries were pretty flat. Here was try number two and yes its too flat...BWD

So cut back apart and cleaned up to be glassed once again. the bevels allow for deep penetration of the resin....BWD

Spent a bit of time on my T-Rex wheels. Finally got some new 42" TSLs (still have the old set for sale). Lots of time welding on a cool rock ring, powdercoating irredecent green then new O rings and Wallah looks cool....BWD

Here's the T-Rex got a stereo installed. Nice to have some tunes. Going to spend some time redoing the interior and either a paint job or a wrap. Seats look bad now...BWD

Got a little more done on the passenger side today but didn't get it in the pics. So I got a ways to go and a few redos already needing to be done. Thanks for looking. BWD

Well the weekend was pretty fruitful. I got a full 16 hour day in on Friday and made a lot of general progress on the panels. Saturday it was more like six hours because I had to stop in the middle of the day and attend my sons basketball tournament. Today it was another six hours if you don't count running over to the shop to grab some quad runner tires I had. I got four of the back tires and two fronts hoping they would all look good on the MiniT. But as I was driving back I started to think those back tires on the quad look proportional to the front tires on the miniT and sure enough they were. Ill have to get some new rims and tires for the back of the miniT but I got a plan.

I used the angle of the front control arm panels to set the angle on the first body panels. That seemed to work fine....BWD
