Getting a little closer.



Need to get that bumper on the floor back on the car and over to the left a little bit.



Thus the reason Mike is doing this.



Fits a little better not perfect but good enough for a driver.



Picked up this little trinket at Good-Guys Pleasonton, Ca

Not sure if you know this, but that's a Ford dealership in Anchorage/Wasilla.

If you do, all the better!

LOL, I didn't but that makes it's even better.

I really just put it on the car to be funny and I just like how it looks. Now I have to remember that it's in Anchorage/Wasilla and I am old with a bad memory so this is going to be a tuff one.

I may just make something different up anytime someone asked me if the car came from Alaska

So next on the list of to do was to put the rear 4 point restraint in which meant we needed to put the rear side panels in. Let's just
say this sucked as we had to undo the Tiger Cage partially so we could put them in. It involved a ratchet strap, Mike almost losing
his fingers and us saying OMG that close.

This was side that scared the crap out of us.

Moving on.

Time to finally install the rear seat belts that I had custom made from Seat Belt Planet. You get to pick everything from colors of material to finishes on the buckles. The best part is the belts are DOT legal.

Prior to this I ran a tap thru the outside bolts.



This is how it looked without the belts.
