The Body and panel mounting are a critical part of how your car will end up looking when it is finished.
Whether you are having a body shop paint your car or doing it yourself, the best results will be from
fully mounting the body, all the panels and getting them to fit properly and then removing the body for
the paint process. If you are not doing any of the body work yourself this means for best results, the
entire car should go to the body shop for panel fitting, in this case, you should take extra precautions to
tape/protect/remove anything that you don’t want paint or primer on.
All of the panels have been trimmed oversized so they will need material removed for a perfect fit. The
easiest method for getting the best fit is to sand or trim the panel edges just enough so they will sit down
in the openings, then fully mount them with hinges and latches. Once the surfaces are all matched
between panels and the body then trim away the edges until the gaps are all even and slightly larger than
you want them on the finished car. The paint will fill in from both sides and tighten the gaps so we
usually run about

” of gap prior to painting. If you are planning on stripes it is also best to line them
up with the body and all panels mounted.
Frame preparation
Tin snips, razor knife
Secondary body fasteners
To ensure that the body is in its proper location, the weather stripping should be installed on the firewall even if
you are just test fitting the panels.
Locate the push-on bulb seal (part #10761) from the secondary body fasteners assembly.
