Thanks William....another day, another learning moment!

True!

Went to visit the car today....more progress. Panels back on to work on gaps.

So are you doing a zebra theme on this one? :grin:

Nice to see it moving forward.

Panel gaps and alignment look very nice, particularly at the cowl area..... great progress

Thanks Tim. Starting with a low mile, unhit, GM sheetmetal car makes the process much easier.

Great progress. Thanks for the update. :biggthumpup: Original Sheetmetal makes a world of difference.

Ditto on the panel gaps, someone knows what there doing :biggthumpup:

Awesome updates, looking forward to more!
I like the primer paint too, very Messerschmitt 262'ish.

Another update....
 

Blocking is mostly complete, just a few minor tweaks needed on the gaps yet, but they look very nice. Won't be long and I'll have the subframe in my garage to work on restoring it back to the factory fresh condition.
Keeping my full transparency theme I've had from the beginning on this adventure...car is an original no spoiler car so I'm having them paint both the spoiler equipped deckled that was on the car when I bought it (NOS GM unit from the late '70's) and an original no weld tab deckled I sourced this year. I also sourced a second wiper panel (orig. GM) in addition to the original one so I could mount some Day 2 gauges like were on it in the early '70's when it ran as an SS/D car.
Also added a closeup pic of the trim tag that I took today. I've been overly obsessive in my communication to the shop doing the bodywork that they cannot "f" up the trim tag because everyone "freaks out" if they see something weird. So heres a pic before they touch it just in case they "f" it up.
