Man!......I have been working on the front inner fenders and panels around the footwells....what a ....even the panel around the gauge cluster and the doghouse panel inside the cab don't seem to fit! Argghhhh
I know the feeling.....not only is it difficult you have to follow the right order of assembly/sequence. When I remove and reinstall mine I need 4 hands so I usually drag in Grant using drift pins and screwdrivers as locating pin we manage to get it all together.............. sure nice to have a flexible back and help when you have t reach underneath and above at the same time. Once all the bolts are actually started ONLY then can you tighten the whole thing. Sad part is I have to take it apart this Winter to install the cover inside insulation.....found some 1/8 ceramic felt which I plan to double up to a 1/4 inch and install using the original staple holes like Phil Waterman did.......... time consuming but so nice when finished.

Mike....... nice pictures of the early C8 with NO air vents.

Remember this is a hobby so take time to have fun!!!!!
