Mikael, thanks ... the self-leveling seam sealer is really cool and flows out nice if you fill the channel side to side evenly, evidentially it's is smarter than me!! I get 'er in the whoops!!


I really don't like hanging doors and such ... finished some small stuff on the door (opened up the drain holes and welded the channel width) Gaps will need some work still and wrestled one in place! The AMD trunk fit like crap and needed persuasion and lots of bending at the corners to fit worth a crap Still needs some lov'in but it's good enough for now!



Not my favorite task ... oh well!

That's a good sign when there is a lock installed!

Still too high in the middle ...

Looking like a car again!

Lessons learned ... don't body work the trunk until you have fitted it to the body, grrrr!

Still need to get the other door finished and bolted on, thanks for looking ...

There's a guy over on Team Camaro that's having a hell of a time with his trunk as well. USA made 1/4's too. Trunk sits too low in the corners (hinge side) both the drivers and pass side.
