Door Sills
After seeing the thread about the door sills for the coupe I realized that I will need to do something if and when I ever get my car back from paint. (45 weeks and counting!) I jumped the gun on doing an FIA build before FFR started doing their kit by using a Mr. Bruce FIA body. Because of that, I have the door sills for a 427 roadster which obviously won't work. Not sure if the FIA door sills from FFR for their kit would fit, but I'm trying to get an idea of what I will need to do to finish this area off. If anyone has pictures of the current door sill for the FIA, and/or a picture of them installed it would help a lot.
Thanks in advance.

What’s the story on the paint and body work. 45 weeks and counting??

I don't know. I get different versions, but mostly the car has just languished there, sitting sometimes for multiple months with nothing done on it. At this point I'm not sure when I'll see it again. Just another decision that I'm questioning. It's decisions like this that have caused my build to stretch out past the nine year mark!

Get it out of there. No reason at all that even w/ the 'we will fit it in between other work' line that it should take > 6 months.

Craig, I know I should have done something quite a while ago. We were shutting our business down around the time I dropped it off, and well... life gets in the way some times. I do know that the result will be fantastic, it just sucks.

I still need to figure out the door sill to cover the gap in the body at the bottom of the doors. If anyone can help on that I'd appreciate it.

Try 72 wks and still not in the shop!

My roadster was in the body shop for 34 months. I really couldn't get it out because it was in pieces spread around the shop. He was busy making money repairing Postal vans. When I finally got it back it looks really good.
