Ok update time... Sorry I did not update friday, but the shop was so dirty I just could not bare to take any pictures.
OK, wear to begin
This is a picture of the completed rear susp. I love the way it came out and think it will work very well.
another angle
this is the top side wear the fuel cells will sit. The plate in the center wear all the holes are drilled is wear the bulkhead fittings will mount.
I started to do the rear floor. What a PITA!!!
This is the part of the floor that will cover up the fuel cells. I know it is big, but the image of my burning to death wrecking the car and fuel spilling all over the interior just scares me. So a firewall was in order.
This is what the firewall/floor board looks like installed
And with the hatch closed I think it looks pretty good. Still need to make access doors to put fuel in. I found them at summit for 39$ but need to make sure they will work.
This is the inside of it. I am planning on making a look alike rear seat cushion over this, but thats a while down the road still
A better shot of it.
After welding it in I sealed it up with a silicone based sealer that is unaffected by chemicals (according to the tube anyway)
This is the back end of the car also sealed up, I still need to drill two holes in there to get access to the bumper bolts.
I added a diagnal bar to the cage, but it did not come out as nice as I had hoped. It is hard to explain why, so I won't try. Ask me in person and I will gladly show you. WIll work just fine though.
Got a little crazy with the sawz-all and decided to remove the upper core support. Have some cool ideas for up here (more to come on this).
Got the dash cut up to fit in. Glad I was thinking ahead. I used the old dash to make test fits and such and cut right through the vin area.. Police might not like that. So I cut this one a little differant. Should look pretty nice. The bottom of the dash needed no modification in anyway.
This is my alternator relocation kit. I have no idea if it will clear the rack or sway bar. Have not tried to put the motor up into place.
Here is one with it sitting on the ground with it's wheels and tires
