Fabricated a new "speaker" shelf and got that welded in

got the down bars made and installed to tie the cage to the subframe, also you can see the tie down brackets we made welded to the front crossmember

Was trying to decide how I wanted to mount the IIMuch fuel and rear end vents and decided to cut a crossmember in similar to the DSE piece on my 69 that the shocks mount to. Used 12 Guage and it welds to the frame rails at each end and provides a flat spot to mount the vents and probably the JRI shock canisters.

Awesome updates, Steve. I'm impressed you're able to keep your fingernails clean and polished while building such a badass car.

Same setup as my 69 and have been very happy with that.

I don't know what your planned use of the car is but if you plan on any road course action you're asking for trouble with that small of a tank. You should use at least a 10 qt. tank. I started out with a 2 gallon in mine in the beginning and ultimately killed the bearings from starvation and aeration of the oil.

Thanks for the info Tim!! I definitely plan on road course use, what did you end up with for a tank? I don't have room for a bigger tank in the cowl area where I have the tank now but I have thought about modifying the tank with a bump out on the lower section like Stielow does.
