Ok....I've got the chassis, steering rack, IFS, rear end, wheels, brake disc, booster, and lines installed....Now what?
I'm thinking I'm ready for a radiator, and engine block, a tranny housing, gas tank, and maybe a recessed firewall. Am I missing anything?
Once I've got this stuff mounted I should be ready for fitting the body on the chassis. I'm assuming I should do a complete mock on this to insure fit and alignment. Right?
Next I would assume would be the steering linkage, column, and wheel. Right?
Please only someone who has done this before need respond....It's challenging enough.
I do have one question. How do I know where to mount the gas tank, so that the rigid neck will lineup with the hole in the fender? Or perhaps I should just sit it in place, place the body on the chassis, and mark the tank, where it lines up....Seems like I have seen others go ahead and mount the tank....
Also, how do you know where to place the body on the chassis? I suppose the grille and hood will somewhat dictate how far back the body needs to go. Any tips on this? Again, please only those who have been through the process need reply. Thanks....
