aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand update.

Got the boxes..... FINISHED! They are functionally 100 percent done. To be 110% they will need a bit of bracing...and some clean up grinding which I'll work on tomorrow, most likely.




Got the master cylinders' brace done. It's even chrome moly for weight savings grinning smiley (ok, actually, we just happened to have the piece laying around, haha)






And I got the last chassis floor holes plugged up.



I've just got to get the seat belt mounts, the rear strut tower tube, and maybe one or two little brackets or random things done AND THEN THE FABRICATION IS DONE!!!!!!!!

About friggin time, huh?

Funny, my dad's version was, "Well, I sent you to school to get smart...guess I can't help which end gets smart."

Lol,

I've always heard John's version as a question, the kid says something, then the asker says "They eat the covers off"

I asked my dad, he says, "They burn the books and eat the teacher. The Gym teacher."
