What kind of hinges or how is it not eligning and all? Any pictures because if the doors need to go out some or something then there are plates you can buy and if not then fabricate some of your own. I don't know how the hinges on the 35's look so I would need to see a pic.www.streamlineautocare.com
If you wan't something done right, then you have to do it yourself!

How are you planning on shaping the metal parts exactly the same as the wood?Originally posted by CNelson

That is probably the problem, things aren't the same, so they aren't going to line up the same.

For sure!! I recall Jim's torsion bar suspension on at least one of his builds, but I'm not sure which one! Maybe the Track T?? He's a talented builder.
