Wow! I did something right!

[reamer]

In building my "Bronco in a box" from Wild Horses, I started in October with a stripped frame and a welder. Working from the rear to the front, Some 50+ body panels.. Lots of measuring and remeasuring (and swearing, bleeding, throwing things) Ya don't really know if what you did is correct......Until you mount the hood...This tells/shows all your mistakes-misalignments.... And how much cutting and re-welding you might have to re-do.
Yesterday I installed the factory hood and doors in the aftermarket body panels making up the tub.
when I closed the hood, SURPRISE! I win! aligned, and square, and the doors have good gaps too!

Looks Great! I spent my first 10 years in New Haven Ct. Someday I'd like to take a road trip back to see the old neighborhood.

on the rotation of the photos, how done?

I open the photo in a photo editing program rotate & save a copy - I did have some photos that rotate when posted & come up correct in an editing program, I just saved a copy & they posted correct. When you upload try "Preview Post" it may show you which pics need fixing before you "Submit".
