Thanks for the compliments, and yes I am going to be painting the inside of fenders and such black with a liner. The car will be a driver so it needs some good protection. As far as the alignment issues with the frame, yes it does affect the alignment after you get your subframe bolted up and especially after you get it on the ground with the engine in it. The gaps are close so I am only assembling it to make sure everthing is cool for now and to see it together for the stripes and for a little inspiration. It makes me see the project coming together. I have had this apart and back together at least 4 times. I will get the front frame mocked up with the front end parts on it in a couple weeks and then I will get it rolling with the front and rear wheels in there final destinations. Then I will break it down and do the scuff, stripes, and more clear. I will have a better idea of the alignment but until we acturally drive it I won't be opening the doors very quickly with out watching the front edge!
One thing I can say is to have the fenders bolted up and have them tight every where so you can do the blockin. Other wise it may have some weird waves and things when you bolt them on and they move in shape. I got that advice from a local pro.

Here is the next evolution of the pic for the stripes.....a little crooked but just for brain storming.
the scoop openings will not be black, obnoxious!
The darker metalic on the hood isn't finished just sill trying to get it the way I want.
The light part is staying that way.
