Jessopia74 1,209 Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Looking great Andy, it's all the small finicky bits that are the time sinks huh! Quick question on door gaps since you have done a shed load, what is the correct gap on the back edge to B post and wing fitment? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Door etc.. are all good I mocked it all up to check before paint. Wings are currently not fully boted on they was just fitted to move to the new workshop.

Jessopia74 1,209 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 TY for pic, Wanted to know the gap for mine, one of the wings is a little miss formed so bodyshop will need to profile to correct. Also the door hinges was welded at one point, so I want them to get the gaps back to what should be original if they are adjusting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure to be honest jess I just screw the gliders back on in same position on the sliding section upon removal, so they go back in same order 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Defo be a keeper 🙂 I've wanted this car for years and at the current prices id like to think it be worth more than 25k once finished considering what it is and the work that's gone into it. Not to mention the amount I paid for it to rescue it from its rusty death 😂 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
