    decided to go with a new 32 shell and insert instead of the rough 32 comm. that I have . had to redo the radiator for a second time (thanks Jeremy of the Iron Lords). but it turned out great . a lot of work making the insert fit close to properly.

    It sucks that the body is not quite as far along as the chassis , but it is getting there.
