Default Hello from the Swan Valley, Western Australia

I've followed the work of Ron Fournier, Ron Covell, Lazze and Wray Schelin and over the years a little bit of their magic has slowly given me the skills and inspiration to create.
I'm currently building a full aluminium sportscar loosely based around the shape and proportions of a Ferrari 812.
I'm keen to pick the brains of others on the forum about construction of the "Door jamb" as part of the rear fender and any tricks to getting an even door gap.
Cheers
Rod Turner

Welcome Rod. I think the trick with the door jamb is to have 40 years experience like the bloke on the other side of Aussie - Peter Tommasini Seriously, lot's of clever folk on here who will be able to help and look forward to seeing some shots of your build.
