| Re: Big-Foot's RCR-40 Build Thread - "SuperCar" Randy:
Yes, indeed, my measurement was to the window opening. Pic attached. Here is the cool part. I ended up trimming the leading edge of the clip so that dimension was exactly 3 1/2 inches on both sides - so when it was trimmed symmetrically it did indeed line up well!
And you and Fran are indeed correct, one side is shorter than the other. I can tell the difference in the slight descrepancy in the wheel well openings on the right side, both front and rear. Pic of the rear atttached. A bit of filler made the descrepancy go away.
I wil soon post some detailed pics on my blog of the 'corrections' we made to address all these little details. When I think back to the descrepancys we originally had (most of which you are now experiencing) and where we are now I am really amazed at the result. You will be too. Just keep plugging away.
