I hacked into my parts car to gain an even clearer view of the world inside the long. I'm here to share my pictures. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

Here's how I hacked in. I wouldn't recommend this tactic on a real project, but I just wanted to get inside without losing the shape and perspective of things. I just took a hack saw and cut into the top of the long and then drilled out all the spot welds along the top.

Another detail show of the seat belt reinforcements. Notice how close the plate comes to the C strap. Remember this for later. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)
