There's lots of little differences in the inner fenders. The fuel vent line notch on the PS and the battery hold down bump/nut on the DS are the two major ones. Why did you add frame connectors? Is this some type of race car?

Nice looking work! (Don't forget about the antenna hole being moved to the rt. 1/4.)
Yes I need to figure out that location. I know were an AAR is parked in Tulsa; so I need to get details from that car unless someone has a template.

I am not trying for absolute perfection. I guess I really just want it to look clean when finally completed. I think there are several holes on the divers side which were for the AC which I will no longer use.
The car is not really going to be a race car. In fact I think the sub-frame connectors are going to create a problem with the AAR type exhaust. My son just wants the look of an AAR. I might get some oval type pipe for clearance under the sub-frame connectors.

Why not figure where the exhaust interference is now and relieve the frame connectors in that area?

Before priming the body I have been considering purchasing the mufflers, hangers, side exhaust, etc. for test fitting and more than likely notching the connectors and then welding in half sleeves in the connectors for the side exit pipes. I think my son has found some SpinTech mufflers with 3" in and out on the same side that he wants to use. While I say this is going to be an AAR clone we are planning to build a 408 for it. I think 3" exhaust is overkill but I am building it for him. I'll post pictures of what I come up with in about a month...
