Hey man,

That's lookin good.

Don't forget the drain hole or it will become a "hell hole" once again.

Again, it's lookin very good.

Keep up the good work.

P.S.

What I would do specifically is get some card stock (like standard paper manila folders) and cut templates out that fit the way you want them too.

Thanks for the kind words.

Yep, one more template to make.

BTW I'm using an air chisel to cut out these pieces.
Does pretty well. Also red tin snips and grinder. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

As to the drainage, I've left a small gap under the engine shelf in the lower long section so the water can just roll away. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/boldblue.gif)

This will be done tomorrow. Yay!

I think you did an excellent job. I must admit I am more of a purist and would have used repro parts, but you did a great job and should be very proud of your work. Want a job??!?

What are the two big bolts through the cab firewall. Roll cage? Seatbelts? NOS tank?

Great job Trekkor. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)

When I replaced the right suspension ear, I also replaced the engine shelf and the battery tray with Restoration Design parts...
