Just a thought- |
I really appreciate the suggestions/tips, and that did run through my mind at one point
I might be putting my cart in front of the horse, but.......
I am going to work from the firewall forward, because I don't have any of the other stuff ready
I want the front susp. done, before I make the engine/trans mounts, and I don't have any of that, yet.
I do have the firewall now, and I feel like need it installed, to make the body rigid enough to remove from the chassis.
I feel like I need to keep moving forward, even if its 3 steps forward and 1 step back
If we need to
trim it, to fit it , when I get that far, its ok
I just hope the engine fits
I kinda planned on it not fitting the trans. correctly, I don't even know if I will need a full, floor length trans. tunnel
I am leaving my body mount/floor support cross-members full width (see pics)
with the intentions of cutting/modifying them to fit the drive-train, later (also to support the body for removal)
Again, thanks for the suggestions and tips
