Nice work!
That center tunnel and set of floors is looking better than new (old stock). |

@McMark
Any updates since the repair work last September? Once those longs and floor structures are complete, you're not far from being able to be back off jack stands! |

Nice to see the floorpans butt welded rather than lapped. Excellent effort on a project that would not have happened just a few years ago. Love to see this progress on a big project. |
