    Nice photos! It's exciting when you get close to the body drop.

    I assume that you counted your body shims when you pulled your body. Now would be a really good time to add the body shim tally marks on your frame rails.

    Good luck and thanks for sharing.

      Yes and yes. Last night was a "mechanical" night. We didn't get to marking the shims and taping them down. We also need to completely detail the chassis with the appropriate paint and chalk marks.

        Hi Chris,
        I really enjoyed you pictures.
        The chassis and running gear are quite mechanically beautiful. It's a shame to cover them up!
        Good luck with the "set", I hope it's not a "drop".
        Regards,

          Thanks, yeah me too. I hope the body "placement" goes OK. It should, I'll have a lot of help.
