I remember putting the body on for the first time after taking it off after delivery. I know it feels good to see the pretty lines of the body on the chassis. Makes you not want to take it off but you know you will about 10 more times. Good luck, WEK.

Keep plugging away man. Although you do eventually have to break it back down to finish things and get it painted, it starts to look more and more like a car with every piece.

Great progress! The end is near.
After 2years driving there is one thing that I would have differently - the dash layout. The stock dash layout fine however if I were to do it again I would replace the stock dash with an SC layout and take a little more time to position the switches etc and I would add a glove box. The SC design provides for better visibility of the tach & speedo, looks a little nicer and provides a very personal custom touch (IMHO - personal preference). I will likely change the layout / replace the dash at some point and create a built in stereo console (not sure when though as there is no real need to do this, only on my "if I were to do it again list" - much easier with the body off though.
You may want to give this some thought. I have no regrets but I would change my dash.
