Really looking forward to seeing this thing finished.
 
Sweet. Every little bit helps I guess. Maybe we can have a wrenching party some time.

Yea it would help motivate it.
After I get the tube work done im gonna move the upper link mounts on the front axle just a little for more triangulation.
I picked up some sheet aluminum so I can start on the rear firewall. The scrap yard has a lot of textured aluminum like used in freezers and im debating on picking some up.
Also found a cole hershey dual battery switch in a old firetruck but I didnt have the toold to remove it.

That switch would look cool on the dash.
 
Just to throw up something new we have the front tube work nearly done and a good start on the dash. I twisted it up to check clearance and run out of cherry picker with 60" under the tire but its not all usable travel and I will limit it down to a safe amount.

The dash panels are ready for gauges and switches.

I dont normally tig weld projects like this but I knew i would always be looking at the welds on the dash and if they were not uniform I would never be happy.
