Order of assembly? From a bare shell

Thanks Fred, good point. I went and saw a retired body guy the other day close to town. Told him the situation and asked if he would swing by to offer some advice and direction for me. Offered to compensate him for his time. Said nope, be glad to swing by. Swung by today in his 70 RR. He said everything looks good underneath. Solid structurally and no issues. So I'll try to figure a way out to raise it up and start scuffing, prepping for Armor Coat, I'll end up brushing and rolling it on.
Heres pics of his rides from his shop Friday and here today. Both him añd his wife are great people.

Glad you got a good car sure makes a difference in getting it done with less frustrations.
Nice RR and even the Ford is nice.
