That looks great ZZ, sorry to hear about the plastic sticking to it! At least it's only a smallish spot and down low, so it should be a pretty easy blend.
 
Sanded out the mess at the left rear and resprayed it - happy now :)Now some more sanding then polish to get rid of orange peel and foreign objects in the paint (dirt)

Looks great ZZ! Can't wait to see it all assembled!

This is the frustrating part in a build where I'm excited because it looks like it's close... but there are many many hours to go.
 
Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement !
It was a beauty day out today so I set up the redneck clothesline with a bunch of misc. parts and sprayed some black urethane, hung them in the shed after so when I need 'em, they're ready to go.

After an epic struggle with gravity and nerves, the body is back on the frame for the last time!! I jacked it up on the dolly, supported it with 4x4s and set it on sawhorses, dropped the dolly out and rolled the frame under with the help of a couple wheel dollys under the rearend. Then I jacked the frame up to the body, pulled out the sawhorses and lowered it down. Took a few hours figuring it out and making it happen, there were a couple scary moments but got it on with no damage or scratches!:):)
