Both Sill Plates and rear cross piece came via UPS. At a quick glance, it looks like the main body sill plates have most of the holes too far towards the center line of the car by about 1 inch! The rear cross piece has vertical notches cut out about 3/8" off. Looks like the typical re-working will be coming my way.

I have post-pone the body wood work until after I get my chassis done. I want to build the body wood off of the completed metal frame.
