Front end/suspension or the tip to the lower quarter panel?
Coffee and doughnut shop cruising alignment (hehe). Does it drive straight and not chew off tires?

I can't remember if you've driven this since you did the frame notch.

It got driven a bit at the start of last season until the driveshaft rubbed on the tunnel brace. Then it sat until I fixed it, and then moved across the country. So, it has, at best, a "tape measure toe" job at the moment. But, it does track straight down the road... unless I stomp on it. 😉
 
This is Stage 1 of reinforcement to minimize panel distortion. I meant to make a press brake fixture before diving into this. And given the amount of panel beating aggravation I went through I should have stopped and built it. Oh well. What's done is done.

Yes, it was a little awkward welding it in.

Stage two is in the standard area behind the rear seats. Stages 3 and 4 are tippy top secret.
