Body Fitting Part 1

We drafted in friends Max and Chris to help finish the slightly messy assembly of the rear end, driveshafts and CV joints which took most of the day at a steady methodical pace but passed without massive incident, apart from having to adjust the rear caliper carriers as the wheels were catching. We ended up griding away the slave wheels in frustration which solved the problem.

When it came to it, 3 people was enough to fit the body. One at the front and one each on the rear wheel arches. Bit of effort required for the two at the back to get it chest high but it dropped straight on. Pushed the footwells up against the plates in the chassis to ensure fore/aft alignment was correct then stepped back to admire our handiwork. The difficult bit will be tomorrow when we start drilling and riveting but for now we basked in the glory.
