Re: LFD's low buck truck build!

I like to use these panel clips to hold things in place. I found mine at a harbor freight tool store but I know EastWood sells them but they are pricey from them. Find a few sopts that have the gap that you want and install the panel clips and tighten them up. You will do the same gap cutting on the out side of the body that you did on the inside. Once the gap is cut just how you want it then install more panel clips starting at the bottom body line and working your way up. Once I got tward teh top I found the top body line was not as far off as I thought it would be. Before tacking anything on the out side together take a straite edge and make sure the body is flat for atleast 12" over your cut.
