I feel we have actually made a little progress with our project but after the excitement of these little advances dies realization set in that a huge amount of work still awaits. As we make one thing fit and work forward something else raises its head and says look at me i really don't fit that well. I for one will be glad when the body work side of things is complete but it seems to fight us every step of the way. I really believe the the reason we are having so many issues is just plain and simply bad reproduction parts. We have decided to completely build the car prior to any paint application ( except for putty/primer) due to the ill fitting bits and pieces. I tried to fit the front qtr glasses today and the width of the doors will need adjustment due to the welded tabs just being welded where they touch and no care of measurement being taken.
By the time this project is complete i could of been driving a brand new Shelby Mustang but they really don't have the passion some of these old cars do. That goes for all makes and models and i suppose it why we do what we do.
Bye for now.
Craig.
