Happy 2015 everyone! After another month long trip overseas I'm back and I immediately hit the garage. This weekend I made some panels for the rear seat delete. I used sheet metal to also act as a rear firewall and covered it with vinyl. I also started on a panel to close the gap between my radiator and core support to help force the air through the radiator.
Still alive. Just saving money for expensive parts and have been busy with other events. In the meantime I ran across a thread about rollbars/ cages so now I want to modify mine to connect to the frame rails. Fortunately, I have enough extra metal around to not have to buy anything for this little project. I made some plates and welded them into the floor using many plug welds and around the edges. Not sure if it shows but the area is double layered. Next will be the tubing itself.
I also modified my welding cart with heavier duty wheels, a frame on the bottom for strength, and a handle. The 200 lb tank was too much for the stock cart.
I've been wondering what happened to this build. I'm glad to see your still moving forward. You've bought a lot of the major items already, what's the other big ticket items?
Thx, Wayne. I hope so. I did my best to get it on top of the frame rail, and there is actually two stepped pieces of metal I added to help disperse the load.
