It would be unfortunate to have to modify or alter parts that have already been finished to a high degree, and your prep of the frame seems to be going above and beyond what I would call normal amateur prep.

Keep it up, though, you are doing good work and demonstrating excellent techniques.

Mart.
The body is together on another frame with the doors on it, the frame it is on is really really rough but it also has never been cut or welded. The deck lit was on it years ago. The hood that i have was also part of this car. Painting is the easiest parts for me, so, im going for it! Im sure i will run into something but i really want to get this done while my father is around. I want to have a drive-able car that is in finish paint. I have all the running gear ready to bring to my house and prep hopefully in a week or 2.
