With the engine in place, the next job is fitting of the side panels before final fit of the front suspension.
As I had chosen to fit the back panel first, I knew that the side panels would probably not be a perfect fit where they meet the back panel at the rear wheels. A couple of minutes with the shears soon solved this.
To fix the side panels I have elected to only use rivets on the underside of the panel - where they can't be seen. Where the chassis meets the panel I have used "black glue". I am really impressed by this stuff and don't believe the panel will move at all once it is cured. Seen in the photo on the right is the first stage of the process. I will bend and fix the rear portion after freeing the clamps from the front, once it has dried.
