John,
NO FLAME..................just a question?
It appears from your pictures that the right (passenger) door does not fit very well. There appears to be a very large mismatch. Is this just an optical illusion or is there some other explanation?
Thank you,
Garrett Waddell

Thanks for the reply. I see your point. The fit in the picture does not look very good at all. It almost looks like the door may have been open. The door fits and closes very well. In fact, I just went out to the garage to make sure. This is an absolutely no hit, no body patches body. The fit is as it came from the factory. I have all the pictures from the restoration - the body completely stripped of paint from all angles. Please note : The car originally had three tail lights (again verified by before pictures). A new panel (correct - maybe NOS) was put on. This is the only obvious body work done to the car other than normal sanding, smoothing etc. Also the frame could be one of the best you are ever going to see. Please dont be put off by my comments about originality, this is a very part number and date code correct car. I just don't want to get in the "original" hassle with folks. Anyone considering this car should bring an NCRS type person with them if they are new to the hobby or are looking for an "original" car.
