Well I've made it to the end of the aluminum pieces for a while. this is what you haven't already seen in previous posts. this concludes the foot boxes and firewall parts. now I have to trim and clean them all up before coating them with a bed liner type substance.

Now I'm going to clean this mess up. there is an amazing amount of drill, saw, and file shavings everywhere.

Hey, got the shop picked up a bit so I took this pic. This is all the pieces to the puzzel minus the floor, which I will take out of the car after I get the tunnel aluminum cleaned up.

thanx for the update... hope to see more soon

but explain why the tunnel-cage needs to be removeable??? it looks like it should slide in and out without removing it....?

The frame is modeled after an original shelby 427 with main rails at 20" on center. Now with the tremec 3650 the bell housing is not removable thus it will not fit between the frame rails the only way to remove the trany with out taking the engine out with it is to come out thru the cockpit thus the whole center section of the car will have ease of removal built in. Thank god for electric gauges.
