Great progress. I wonder where you purchased the toe boards and floor pans from.

Keeps the photos coming man.

Small update...Progress is progress though

I also decided not to reuse my original inner tubs and modify them. I just bit the bullet and ordered a new set of DSE inner deep tubs. Less work involved

Not much going on this weekend as far as the car goes. I did get out yesterday afternoon and built 1 of the 2 sub boxes.

I'm still waiting on my DSE deep tubs and some sheet metal to make any further progress for the mini tub install

Well, I tried to get the driver's side tub done this weekend, but that did not happen. I made progress and am almost ready to weld in the tub, just not quite there yet though. Mini tubs are more difficult than I realized. I believe I would rather install a quarter panel than do mini tubs

I'm still plugging away at the driver's mini tub. I am almost ready to install the new inner tub and complete that side. My timing for getting this done keeps getting interrupted, so it's been a bit of a slow go.

Also, I picked up a bunch of steel, pneumatic ram jacks and a geared hand winch for another project, as if I need more. I need to have this done ASAP, so it will interrupt getting started on my passenger mini tub install. However, it will help speed up the install and allow me to work more comfortably on all areas of the car.

I see you chose CDT speakers. I have those in my Chevelle and couldn't be happier. The are a great quality speaker. You will be happy with them.

Yeah, I have been using their speakers for quite a few years now. I love them

I want to give a shout out to the great folks over at Matt's Classic Bowties and Ridetech. Great bunch of people to deal with and all my future business, as has been in recent history, will be with them.

Danny, here's one for you

Truturns on are backorder Still have plenty to do while I wait on it though

No progress worth reporting at the moment. I'm waiting to get my tool and die guy to machine my round stock to fit the outer bearing race I'm using on my rotisserie. That, of course, will keep me from getting it finish built.
