Tight is nice, but consistant is the key.
When all is said and done, this is one of if not THE key area when building any project car. Fit is critical.
I have seen so many cars that would have been breathtaking if they had spent more time on the fit. It is by far the most time consuming, back breaking, tedious and un-glorified aspect of any build, but it is what separated the men from the boys.
Who in their right mind would assemble and dissassemble a car over and over and over and over again just to get the gaps and fit perfect. Because, if done right, when finished, no one should notice. They should see the color, the finish, the engine, the interior, the wheels, etc, etc, etc...
If they notice the gaps and fit it is most likly because they rushed through this phase and they stand out like a sore thumb.
