This is like a party! I am just about at the same point as all you guys! Whoo hooo! I have to fine tune some stuff but I will be having the body painted by the start of September and then "putin the buggar" onto the frame! here are some pics; Chassie one year ago (Aug 2012), now (Aug 2013) and body work prep (July 2012)! This is so great! Cheers to all!

Looking good. Good seeing you at the show on Thursday.
 
TR4nut, yes the 3/32" is the difference between the top and bottom gaps of the rear door edge with the bottom gap being wider. Right now I have 4 shims on each outrigger. Should I add another shim to each outrigger?
