Yes, but I think we'll work on something else next weekend other than sheetmetal, after one day I need a break. For some reason it frustrates me

Yes it can be a very frustrating task as each piece affects the next in multiple ways. Unless everything is marked/scribed or drilled with a locating hole it is a very complex jigsaw puzzle.Take your time and it will come together.

We'll get it, pretty sure it won't be perfect but it's a team sport and we may have to take a loss at panel alignment hahahaha.

I'd rather put some part of my anatomy in a vise and t-i-g-h-t-e-n it, than hang sheet metal..... -Al

We snuck down and put in some work today. Gotta get the headers done this week so punched some o2 holes and started to disect the seat side. Although I think she would have been ok with the seat, she looked as if she was working too hard to get a good line with the shifter.

Autumn took the collecters to a friend today and he welded the bungs in. We also got the seat all back together and welded up.
