After getting the body on and calling
it a day, I noticed that something didn't look right. If you look close
at the picture below, you can see a gap between the frame rail and the
body. Well the gap you see should be no-gap at all. The body should be
right next to the chassis and not 1 1/4" away which means I have a
big problem. This is the drivers side if you were wondering.

On the passenger side, the gap is 1
1/2". This has to get fixed or I won't be able to get as large a
tire in there like I want too. Turns out that the body was made for
another chassis.

The tubs (wheel-wells) would have to
be cut completely out and moved inward and then re-fiberglass them back
together. If you look close you can see that the tubs go through the
bulkhead (the piece that separates the trunk from the inside of the car)
and would also have to be cut through along with the floor inside the
car so I called Redneck and told them the problem I had. After talking
to them, they wanted me to fix the problem myself. Well not having to
much fiberglass experience to my credit, I don't think I want to try
my hand at it so he said he would fly out and fix it himself. Sounds
good to me so I hope to have this fixed by the end of next week
(5-16-03). After it's fixed, I'll post another update.
