Ok, the body was delivered last night. I have a couple, well, many questions. B&B is closed today, so hopefully, some of you will have some insight. Slow Dawg, you out there???

1) What is the best way to ensure that the body is centered front to back and side to side?

2) What holds the butt up? The sides attach with sheet metal screws and fender washers, the front mounts with the hinge and body support, but what holds the but up in the air? Is it just a combination of the rear quick jacks, the glassed in trunk, etc?

3) Where/how do the rear quick jack brackets mount? Pictures please!

4) How do I establish the nose height?

5) When measuring for the roll bar, should the body be perfectly level? Should it be at the cant forward like it will be on the road?

6) How much body work did you really need to do on these things? The seems seem non-existant, but they are there.

Any other suggestions?

Tom
