Default Trouble mounting body

I am building a Classics Roadster Cobra (manufacture date was March '99). I am the 3 rd owner of the kit (the first 2owners did little more than bolt some parts together and look at it). Anyway, I spent the winter building up the chassis, and today was the day to drop the body back onto the frame.

The body dropped down and everything seemed to initially line up OK, but upon closer inspection there is an approximate 1" gap floor cross members and floor & between the rear deck and frame cross member. The body is sitting securely on the cowl bar and everything up front seems to be pretty good. The rocker panels seem to have about a 1/4" gap to the outriggers on the frame. (Based on the manual, this seems OK to allow for door adjustment).

Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations as to what might be my problem?

Thanks.
