Panel fitting

Though it's a lot of work, it doesn't really yield a lot of interesting pictures - 'hey look they added some more gook and sanded it back down.' But rest assured, I am not slumping on the job! Josh came out today and armed with grinders and sandpaper, we fitted all the panels and laid in a little more 'schmutz' in key areas to get the doors level.

Next things to do are:
Flatten out the trunk panel a little - the edges are still sharp. The driver side pipe is a little crooked and if I went with it as is, would have to cut a much larger side pipe hole in the body. I'm going to try to redo the rear mount to minimize the pressure pulling back on the pipe. Hopefully this will eliminate the need to cut too much fiberglass from that hole. After that, we pull the body, clean it and prime it. We're hoping for good weather on Thursday. We'll spend time Wed. getting cleaned up and ready for spraying thursday. Things look good!

Here is a picture of the mammoth engine peeking out of the engine bay. You have to look under a lot of the wiring to see the engine heads spanning the entire bay. When you do realize you are looking at engine...you kinda go "oh...OOOHHHHH."
