Fantastic progress here!

The doors, hood, trunk and deck lids are on the car. All are adjusted and in final position except the deck lid. We have a little more alignment work to do. In addition, the center compartment between the seats is yet to be installed.

Next up after finishing the body panels, we will install the door strikers and internal door latch assemblies, along with the trunk latch, hood latch and deck latch. At that point, we will be ready to water sand the exterior in prep for final paint.

Thanks Gary, seems like we’ve been doing body and paint forever! Won’t be much longer.
