Answers to question. the Dash, its quilted walnut and I refinished it myself too, that was a lot easier than the painting, but feeling better now that its going back together, And Dale unless you can put me up for a couple of weeks I doubt its going to happen, LOL

I'm jealous!! Those door fits are just too good to be true....
 
Hey Brosky, the gaps came out very well but a lot of shifting to get them right, only thing is the gap at the rear fender is a little wider at the top than the bottom, so I was wondering if I need to or can add some shims to the tub to frame anchor points in the rear to close it up some? Help and recommendations are appreciated

Hondo,

Let it go as is and get everything back together. Then you need to drive it for a while to let everything settle into place. In a month or so after driving, you can tweak it, or it might look fine then.
 
Thanks Brosky,

thats the way they looked before I took them off too, but I agree Get er done and back on the road and when I get bored I can work on the gaps,

any suggestion on the hood, I finally got the gaps left to right good and front to back but the passinger side the hood sticks up about 1/8 of an inch just at the wind screen even when I take the black cone out. was ok till I put the hood catch on

suggestions? if I raise the cone on the drivers side would it tend to pivot the passinger side down? come to think it was that way before too

You may have to lower the hook lock assembly down. Those holes are slotted to allow for that.
