Nice build so far 😎.....my kit the body was pulled out on both sides making the chassi look smaller. Had to push it in need to do more.

Now Jason cutting doors open, that’s a big deal! I’m sure you’ll kill it! You got more cojones than me that’s for sure! I never tried that! Kind of anxious to see that done! Looking pretty good so far! 👀👍🏻🫡🇺🇸

Good video Brother, And you can lay strips on each side to bring out the floor pan where you want it.. Then puddy up the seams and make the jambs how ya want.. The problem your having now is why my lazy butt tends to use pro stock chassis alot and very few drag cars get doors open.. Looks good so far and I know you will handle this thing.. I'VE SEEN YOUR WORK 😎👍🇺🇸. YOU GOT THIS

Door jams on these old 50s vehicles tend to slant outwards as they go down. Google 55 Chevy door jamb and you will see it for yourself. The best thing to do is find out how wide your rocker needs to be and build up from there.

The AMT 1/16 55 Bel Air has opening doors already out of the box - if you know someone who has one to reference. With that said I looked online and it's hard to really tell but I think your mods are probably correct on the doors. There's a door sill plate that goes in there at the bottom as well and once you make that I don't think it will look quite so wide. 👍

The 55 is looking good jason. I am going to build the same kit for the street machine group build also. I have a 3D printed 572 i will be putting in it. I want to get wheels / tires for it but i don' t know what size or type to put on it . I have never got aftermarket ones before. maybe you can lead me in the right direction lol.
