Looks good.
One thing i would say is that make sure you leave oplenty of room for those back 2 headers around the footwells. It has taken me hours on my car to fix the headers in position because so little room when the footbox is so close. It was easy when i dry assembled, but once i had gasket selaer and gaskets in place the job turned into a nightmare.
I also made my own footbox covers that cover the steel structures on my chassiss:

Another update, have purchased 11" rotors, adapters are coming for the calipers, and have the calipers and new banio bolts. The windshield is here, waiting for some parts, gas tank is out for modifications, pickup and breather bungs and hole for the gage assembly, cleaned up the 8" wide ET-IV wheels for the back. Body is setting back on the frame for another fitting, radiator filler needs to be welded up as it's too close to the body plus I don't need it anymore, body will have to come off again to remove the radiator. Hopefully I can get some pics this weekend.
More later Carl.

Well guys my health issues have changed and I had to part with my baby, the Dr said my cancer is not curable so I sold it to a gentleman with 2 boys and it will be a father/son project, he spent 2 hrs going over the car before deciding to purchase, and it went to a new home Sunday. Thanks for all the help and advice you provided during my build.

Torch has been passed.
Picked the car up from Carl (pictured) on Sunday!
Will be a great project to finish with my boys.
Thank you for your great starting point. So very sorry to hear the outcome of the Dr visit.
