55.2-59 1958 Saab story

Have you checked how the front wheels will be for centering in the wheel openings of the fenders yet? Just wondering because it seems like the old body is mocking up quite a way back. Would hate to see you spend a bunch of time only to find the front axle line is gonna be too far outta whack to make it look right. I seen a guy doing a 4 headlight truck and his old truck firewall lined up with the trailblazer firewall.
Keep postin, its great to see how fast you are getting things done.

I marked the center line of the wheels with a plumb bob and a sharpie. That's why centering the rear wheels was so important. Once I get the dash as low as I can, I'll fit the front fenders and make sure there's clearance. I promise I'll post pictures.
