    Made a little progress

    I finally got the front floors and the tranny hump cut out of the car.  That was a major psychological hurdle for me to get over...  the final butchering of the car to get the 427 and TKO in there.  From now on, it is all reconstruction, and should go alot quicker.  At least if my back would quit bugging me!

    I think getting the floors and hump cut out is pretty substantial progress. I hope the rebuild goes smoothly for you.  
    The end result should be worth all the work.

    MS I'm sure that has to has to be a little nerve rattling cutting up something that is perfectly good. Let the fun begin.

    If this forum can't fix it, it isn't broke.

     Not until I completely smoke the existing hides bare...

    Heck, I still have to get a drive shaft built...
