Seeing this build once again reminds me: What ever happened to the Atlas T-Case-in-a-Rover Adaptor?

Totally, you could be inviting Bill over to your house. he's right down the road.

Steve while you are turning a certain garage into the sun perhaps you could pop over & have tea with the old chap!:rofl:

Lane are you worried about what you steering wheel may look like after eating some Cheetos!?!?:rofl:
The capping looks great! Keep it up you seem to have a good bit of steam..

OK my dad was reading a hot rod book, and he saw in there that alot of guys that build cages do a mock up of balsa wood to test the rigidity.

Well i went to the local wally world, and i found 8 ich popsicle sticks.. I tried to make it to scale, but i accidentally made the rear passenger area between the c pillar and the b pillar 2 inches to long, so ignore that..

Here is my idea i have for the cage.. this was actually pretty fun, and it was amazing how the header bars, and the upper support bars on the roof really tied it all together..

anyways here it is..
