From Amazon, OT. I don't have the model shop name to hand, I'll put it up when I get home tonight.
I'm going to be converting this to a 2 door soft top.

Making progress....
Old 4-door lines filled and new 2-door ones etched. Some filler on to extend the bodywork at the rear to convertible shape. Still to be sanded down once hardened.

First THREE coats of paint on.....DAMN! that Heller blue is hard to cover.
