Please, not to be offensive,
but was the body ever straight? Building more than one CMC cars I have found that none of the bodies that we build were ever straight. It was rare to find a frame that was 'square' let alone a body.

As you progress through out the kit I am sure you will see what I mean. A lot of compromise was needed to come up with a good car.

Heat-(direct sunlight), pressure (straps-porta-powers) all seemed to help to move the body's around. Body on the frame then see what you get when the doors are installed?

The ballon 'plumbs' are a heck of an idea!
