I built my buck using the dimensions in the FAQ article. My car will be here in the next couple of days and I will post how the car fits.

Body Buck from FAQ jpg
I printed the JPEG versions of the body buck templates found in the FAQ on a plotter. I am cutting them out and just figured I would sanity check my printout. The measurements on my printouts seem to be quite different from the measured drawings I have found.
Has anyone used these images and do they fit the body well? Is there a straight line dimension that I could check to be sure my printout did not scale in some strange way?
Thanks,
- Jesse

Well, I put my body on the buck, that sounded wierd, and the front fits fine. The rear not so good.
I decided that for now, it is good enough. I like the idea of using cardboard to come up with a better template. I built mine before the kit arrived so that garage space would not be an issue.
Good luck.
