Darn, I’ll keep an eye on them. Don’t really want to move them now and weld all that back up again. I’m waiting on the final pieces to come together and make sure it all actually works and I’ll be returning the trans jack to you, thanks for the extended borrow time...

Last pieces are coming together and the only thing I’m waiting on is an AOD gate plate for a winters shifter. They’re backordered so we sit and wait for it.
Floors in, triple sticks mounted, new tunnel cover with relocated switches, radio, and trans controller.

Countdown few weeks maybe? Fingers crossed.

Done. It’s pretty rad. I don’t have any pictures of the final interior right now but last weekend was a shakedown run and it worked very well. Tidy up this/that and I’ll be “done” for a while.

Glad its worked out well. Time to enjoy it!
