Getting the interior together today

[Rockford]

How do I know this is going to turn out spot on? The tape line sounds great, doesn't have to be hi-tech to work. Bricklayers use a piece of string.

I can’t flipping believe it. Glueing front fender to hood and it slipped messing up the paint. I could scream, time to quit today.

NNNOOOO !!!!  Doesn't look too bad........ a light scuff, and a light shot of paint and back in business..... those kids of accidents are infuriating , especially when you're trying to be so careful....  take 5 and then have a look at it when your blood pressure is back to normal.... it will be a smooth repair.....

Don't worry about it! It won't affect the result of your build!

I watched you do a different kind of fender repair on one of your previous builds and all turned out fine - this will too, I'm sure!

Thanks guys, it is very repairable, repaint the one side of the hood and repaint the fender, not really a big deal I guess. I just hate a redo because of operator error
