Minimal progress since the last update, but it's progress. Been kinda bummed since the fiasco with my Fikse wheels. Since the last update I've accomplished the following.

* Trimmed the quarter lips for the 335's.
* Removed the body filler from the previous body work (that I paid to have done) only to find that the driver side quarter to roof skin seam had not been welded solid. So, I welded it solid. I also found that the roof skin was not welded to the windshield pillars, so I had to fix that too!
* Welded up the seams where the deck lid filler panel and quarter panels meet.
* Welded in the trunk latch bracket in the trunk.
* Installed the weatherstrip gutters.
* Had some major pitting in the passenger side a-pillar, so I had to cut out a section and weld a patch piece in.
* Stripped the shell down to bare metal and sealed it with DP primer.

Here's a few photos.
