As this build moves painfully slow, I installed my NPD (as advised by this forum)
doors and found with minimal adjustment they fit acceptably well. I was having
nightmares with the stories I had read, but the fit and the thickness of the steel
are all quite good.

The fenders came from another supplier, and OMG. They are all the way back,
and if you look at the picture, I can reach my hand through the gap and touch the
hinge. I moved the doors all the way forward, and still. The inner structure is
welded too far back. I am going to dig my old fenders out in the morning, and see
if I can scrap these out to patch my GM fenders, or just what I can do. For today,
I am throwing in the towel. It’s Friday, I’m gonna have a beer and try not to think
about it.
All the way back as far as it will go

I was told that we could cut the inner structure from the outer fender,
adjust it, and weld it back together. I am open to suggestions.
