Right now I'm assessing the possibility of stretching the '89 frame and moving the panel body. If it does not take a lot of changing of the body, it may be the thing to do to get the panel back on the road ASAP, then take my time doing the original frame the way I want.

Don't lose your head to save a minute,
You need your head, your brains are in it.
