Here are some pictures of the doors, hood and trunk being attached temporarily so that I can eventually send the car out to my painter.  The body has been taken off and put back on since the last update, and is now bolted down so that the body work can be done with everything in the position it will end up in; small changes in the way the body, doors, trunk and hood are attached to the frame can create clearance problems with moving panels and cause non-uniform gaps around them.  All that's left to do before the car can finally be taken to the painter is the reattachments of the front and rear quick jacks (bumpers), which isn't very time consuming but is a pain for the back of the car because you have to lower the gas tank in order to get at the bolts that hold them in place.  Anyways, hopefully I can get that done within the next week or two.  In the meantime I'm going to try to arrange a definite drop off date with the painter.
