I posted a few pics from the other day in the "Random pics of my 6 ohhh" in the Diablo section.  Today is all about getting the lower window track installed, final bonding of the inner panel to the frame (it's bolted on but I want a little more strength), and getting the outer door panel glassed on.  Everything will be able to be accessed and removed/replaced by unbolting the inner card.  I used Forgeline rims from a Dodge Viper for the rear and some Forelines from a mustang on the front.  Had to get spacers and adapters made.

Hey about your door glass, did you email Ron from Ron's Toys Store.  I see that he is no longer doing replicas and had a email posted for anyone interested in his parts/stock.  He may have some, did you have any luck contact Jeanie Matz from AGP?

I took another long break on my Diablo.  Got it running and took it around the block the other day and that renewed my need to get this thing done.  Been working on my doors for the last week, adding metal, getting the door solenoids working, etc.  Now I'm onto the window track and molding the outer door on.  Your doors look like they fit very well (mine are going to need a lot of extra work haha).  Looks like we're almost at the exact same spot with our doors.  Keep plugging away, we'll get there!  Your rides lookin' good!

Thank u. I'm not sure what to do about the door glass. I'm still new to a lot of things and I don't know enough people with resources yet..

Glad to see it's coming together, I don't think you can cut side glass..at least the tempered ones.
