Not a whole lot more done, just prepping areas for rollbar plates. Placed a couple bolts in a/c delete panel, so i felt like something was going back together.

Coming along nicely

Well, well! I've lost track; what are your goals for this car? I assume we're not running a headliner here. That windshield clearance looks like it's going to be tight

Ordered my window net, and two sets of kirky seat brackets. I've been thinking about selling my tubular front bumper support from midwest chassis and buying one from burkhart chassis. It's much beefier, plan was to tow the car off that bumper support.

Got my quick release steering wheel in and mounted. Little tight on room these days at the shop.

I started taking the front apart last night. I put the tubular bumper on just to assist with pushing car back and forth. Also wanted to see intercooler clearance, and see how I would fab up a tow hook bracket.
