All but two bottom plates are now finished!

Had to patch a soft spot before plating.

All welded up underneath.

Plates underneath are finished.

Those triangles are just bits of scrap I used to cover up a couple small soft spots.

Fixed the lower door jamb area.

It didn't have any seats, carpet or door panels when I bought it.

I will be going away for 8 weeks for Level 2 Automotive Service Technician training.

No progress will be made on the car during this time. :disgust:

Learning for 8 weeks is better than building for 8 weeks. Learning earns you money.

Oh I totally agree, but I wish I could have gone in the middle of winter when the building itch has sort of died down and the current racing season is over.

Pretty much what ever was available as a factory option and basically "stock".

Unless you change your engine to something that wasn't available from the factory or for reliability issues. (360 in a 5th Avenue, Small Block Chevy in and Olds etc...)

Here's a link to a PDF of our rules.
