Once the clear coat cured, the car could be returned to the original frame. Before that however the engine and transmission were reunited and dropped on to the frame. After that all the accessories were put back on. There is one hiccup yet to be resolved here. The alternator is not lining back up like it had before. This is most likely due to the new position of the alternator bracket. It is not 100% back in the original location due to the after market intake. It's not critical to address right now, but we will get it right before the front clip is installed.
With basically 95% of the chassis done, the car was set down on the frame. Now one thing that took me a long time to find was the body mount kit. For some reason it was a rare parts set to find. I eventually found a set from The Parts Place Inc. (Not to be confused with Parts Place Inc for VWs) Now I'm not 100% sure what exactly happened, but the two bolts that mount the frame at the door sill poked through. My body guy also made a comment there were two bolts short. I'll have to look at the next coupe or convertible, as I just don;t recall bolts going under that sill plate. Plus when he did it, the bolts poked right through. I seemed to recall there were just bumpers there and no actual bolt. Not real sure. I also need to consult the assembly manual. It should say in there.
Here are some shots of the car back on the frame.
Now back in its true original configuration, work can continue on the main body.
