Seems just a little high in front. As you said it's all just sitting there. You can see where the inner fenders don't meet the frame, and with the front suspension not glued down yet that may be all it needs. The engine is looking good.

Yeah where the suspension isn't glued down to chassi and the body isn't glued down to it either it's raising up a little...also those wheels are tucked in the front...I might go with factory wheels, and will have to raise the back up some lol

UPDATE: build has been slow! I have been working a lot, not much time to get at the bench. Got most everything fitted and sanded and ready for paint and then today dropped the body in the gravel while painting it and tore it up...was trying to get body painted before going to the beach tomorrow for family vacation. Oh well I'll get back on it when I come back I guess!

Normally, I just hate most aftermarket wheels.

Surprisingly, I like these! ;)

Take that as a great compliment from me Sam.

Usually the first thing I do is start harassing people for their terrible wheel choices!

Yeah those were the Foose wheels that came with the kit. In that picture the car is sitting up in the front more than back...I have it leveled out now...I think the car is gonna turn out nice after I fix this body!
