Besides, this is really easy with all nice, new, pre-fitted clean parts. No rusted fastners, no warped frames, no broken fiberglass, no multiple layers of paint over 30 years to strip. Piece of cake compared to that so far.

Thanks

No intention to dump on you for the great job you're doing, just commenting, for which this forum is designed.
Being only fifteen minutes from ERA, I've been in the fab shop on numerous occasions and have seen the guys doing this work (you should have seen how rough the pre-731 bodies were), and it's no picnic.
