Had a good day today. Mounted the Heater Box, Recovery Tank, MSD Box and the Brake Booster/Master Cylinder.

Things are taking shape.

Are you going to paint the body before you drop it on the chassis?

Hi Howard,

The plan is to drop the body first (hopefully in 2 weeks) and then adjust the door gaps.

It will likely need to be blocked out one more time before heading to the paint shop.

I hope to have colour in May.
