Nice work!

That center tunnel and set of floors is looking better than new (old stock).

@McMark

Any updates since the repair work last September?
Once those longs and floor structures are complete,
you're not far from being able to be back off jack stands!

Nice to see the floorpans butt welded rather than lapped.
Excellent effort on a project that would not have happened just a few years ago.
Love to see this progress on a big project.

Sir, any recent photos (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) the cost to repair a shell like that is real money. But you went the distance on that one.
