OK guys,
I am finishing up a couple of projects here over the next month or two (the dang race car keeps on taking up time to keep it going, but I have a few months off from that soon). I should be able to actually start my build, but I was wonder what you all did in what order. I just read Ken's build and he painted and did the body up front. I was thinking body paint later so it does not get messed up. What did you all do or plan to do?
So here are thoughts.
1-Just follow manual page by page?
2- Take body off, pedals, brakes, suspension- front lift kt, fuel system, install engine and transaxle, plumbing for coolant, ac, oil cooler placement if used, accusump, electrical, get car running and drive it, body fitment, lights, interior fitment and custom items here for me, body off and paint if needed, body on, windows and final items.
I am just trying to think ahead. I am already pretty certain I will take each bolt and part off multiple times, but I am trying to plan a few things and use a logical approach to this to save myself frustration and some time if I can.
Thanks
Troy
