November 27 update.
A couple of things have been accomplished since the last update on the build. I fabricated and installed the wheel houses on the floor pan. This was a lengthy process but I'm happy with the end result. Everything seems to fit properly so I can attach the rear door frame and start the actual assembly of the wood bits. Finally!
The dash has been painted in wrinkle finish paint, and has been reinstalled temporarily to stiffen up the front and keep things rigid for the frame construction. I've placed the switch panel and oil button along with the patent plate into the dash to add incentive. The screws in the oil button are not the ones that will be used and are there just to hold it in place for the pics.
Currently the windshield frames are out to have their glass fitted, so I should have those back soon.
Cheers,
Stephen
