Hey don't rush it, she can't even say "boy" right now haha! I know what you mean though, these 8 months have flown by and it's picking up speed. Each day she does something new and each day she is more and more fun to be around, I trying not to think about the dating and drama that is without a doubt, down the road. I am still in my bubble. I like it in here, it's nice and worry free. :EmoteClueless:

It's a good place to be and if your lucky you may get another 10 or 12 years. But after that the Boys start looking at them and then it starts........

Still chipping away at the to do list. Got the floor cut fr subframe connectors, and mocked them in. Didn't get any further tonight because my welding cylinder is empty.

Here's how I have the car sitting with weight on the suspension. Motor is in for added weight too.

Floor pan cut for the pass through

Floor pan cut to expose the torque box so the connector can be welded to it.

Looks like great progress. Bummer about running out of the gas when you're ready to weld in the connectors. Just like when I use to barbecue and ran out before finishing cooking the meat. Bought an extra cylinder for the BBQ but I can understand not doing that for the welder. Keep up the good work with the great picture posts.

Same here, always keep a spare propane bottle! Other than these connectors and trans tunnel most of my welding is behind me. I do wish I bought a larger welding cylinder but really other than working on the nova my welder doesn't get used much. Hope to have more progress to report soon, thanks for the feedback.

Glad to hear that! Wiring is not my strong suit, I can run wires, make connections, solder, heat shrink. But understanding why and how it works. Not for me, but the kit comes with a very nice diagram and I am sure with a little help it'll end up ok.


I hope....
