Not much to update, I've been working on door gaps and body shims. Boy what a PITA, I think I have the pass side door dialed in, the gap at the quarter panel is a hair over the thickness of a paint stick. On the drivers side I have a great body line but it's about 1/4" wide on top and a hair wider at the bottom of the quarter and the hing is back as far as it will go. If I lift at #3 body mount the top will get wider. Any ideas? before I elongate the lower hing bolt holes.
