If you have not checked out this thread in a few days you need to go way back and get caught up. I have realized that as far ahead as I currently am that I could be dead before all the posts are completed.
While the project is still a ways off from being finished, I have extensively documented the build.
If you remember from the start I promised a lot of pictures, an intense build and that it wasn't another F-Body.
I believe that I have held up my end and hope that you continue watching.
Comments are always appreciated as I make mistakes frequently and maybe you can catch something that I have not down the road.
Please don't be intimidated by anything that I have done here. I started off just like anyone else with more guts than brains. Unfortunately as I get older I wish I still had some of that young mans drive again.
Thanks to all of you for following along and good luck on your own projects!

Time to get some working room. I knew from the start that a stock floor-pan would never work. This is a zip cut and sawzall deal for the most part.

I was quite tentative when I first started cutting. Don’t worry I got over my hesitancy quite quickly.

We are getting a little braver with our cutting. The body is hanging from its 2 lifting fixtures. When I am underneath I also add the rigid pipe stands for extra safety.

As you follow my build you will notice that I buy stuff just for mockup. These shocks may have had aspirations of fame on Transcona but they are just the stunt doubles.

I removed the dash. Then the dash removed some of my skin. I loosened and shook and pried on the dash assembly and it wouldn’t move. When I was at my absolute limit of POed, it just fell down, WTF!
