NOW you tell be about all those little tricks. If I had known some of them, for sure my hands and arms wouldn't be a criss cross of scars

One trick that I learned putting the body on my TCI chassis. The cowl bolt holes are mean to line up, with skidding the body on a freshly painted or powder coated frame to drop a couple of 3/8" bolts into the nutsert. I was making up an order for McMaster-Carr when I came across some Gr B7 studs - . You guessed it - dropped right into place and every other bolt hole lined right up exactly. I have a couple of extras now - but so what.

From my order:
