Impressive! Very impressive. I think the hood might be a touch too far on the driver's side, where it meets the fender. Will you be repainting the whole car?

You chose not to replace the bumper with a Euro style (no bumperettes)?

The primed body panels were dry-fitted to make sure no further massaging of the pan was required. Once painted, all will be assembled with proper rubber gasketing between panels ( where required ) , and all the seams adjusted.
I left the bumperettes on, 'cause with my luck, I'll run into shelving in the garage and scratch the bumper itself. This way, the bumperettes will take the beating

Looks like it is being done right. What shop is doing the work? Did you conside filling in the washers under the lights?

Dan, work is being done by Vaughn Fine Touch. Insurance is paying for the parts, so I'll leave the headlight washers for now. I might want to press that switch now and then

Save them when you can, a new lease on life. Someone in the future will want to thank you.
