Add to that getting the SS beading in place with out scratching the wing
paint.  HINT: Run a 2" wide strip of painter's tape along either edge before
you start and have a steady-handed friend to help.

I just had a car painted and am putting the fenders and panels back on.  I
think this is probably the most stressful thing I have done, for various
reasons:
-  Worried about scratching the new paint
-  Worried that the panels won't fit
-  Worried that the captured nuts will fail  this one time

Driving a restored car for the first time comes close, but I think this
takes the prize.  What thinks the list ?
