The most common mistakes I see at the local thing is the gaps being inconsistent. There may be 1/8" to 3/16" DIFFERENCE in gaps on the same car. Like they just bolted a panel on an painted it. I looked at a 67 Mustang coupe last saturday that had 1/2" gaps on the pass side and 1/8" on the drivers side. It looked like the pass door was too short.
But they painted it like that anyway.

Yep. Thats the same with all the cars I see too. My gaps are no where near tight and super clean but they all seem to be consistant. That is all we are aiming for. The car will be drove to and from shows/events and wont see a trailer unless shes really hurt.

He helped me out with a few changes to my '90s Caprices but there was no shop (gravel driveway or sloped street only), no array of tools and definitely no money to pull off anything like you're doing here with your dad. Hopefully while mine's still around I will be able to get a project started with him.
Thanks for the updates!

Thanks for takin the time to stop by. Im glad that you enjoyed me and my dads jorney so far, its been a long one. Just looking back now there are times I see me and him working on it and it makes me smile. Its not about the car so much as the times hanging with him that mean a lot to me.
