Post Re: Offset body???
I took a good look at this at the weekend - there's a hell of a difference side/side in the gaps between the inner arch and the rear frame. I shoved a bit of wood in the gap drivers side and got the body to move about half an inch - but got nothing to hold it in place.

Could it be anything to do with where the shell is bonded to the rear bulkhead? by the looks of it i'm going to have to cut this before it'll move much more?

Depending how exactly your inner arches are fixed these can have a huge difference, if you were to make a cut i would look around there, make a cut in th einner arches and i think you will be surprised just how much you can move the body. it just keep wedging, obviously stop if you hear a crack from the fibre glass :wink: can be surprising how brutal you can be to grp sometimes
