little bit done today <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

started on the frame to support the tub , and tie into the roll bar and seat belts
started with building the main supports .. and yes the tops are NOT level . This is due to the uneven fiberglass floor .

[Linked Image]

ready to go (4 built )

[Linked Image]

starting to "piece" it all together
drivers side

[Linked Image]

passenger side is different , because of the fuel filler tube .. had to be routed over top .

[Linked Image]

all sectioned together and ends plugged ...
I have too very strong mounts

[Linked Image]

and mounted

[Linked Image]

still have to build the cross bars ... But it will have to wait till after I pull the tube off for rienforcing ..

the glass will add to the thickness of the tub , so I cant build the final floor support untill the tub is done ..

excellent day ...
got my check list done...

feet welded on the bar
[Linked Image]

and my goal today was to have the seats basically done..
I have welded the locks and covers .. (you can see in the pic)
lock button supports welded
headrest supports welded
seat back cushions "carved" and fitted

[Linked Image]

also got the roll bar mounts done.. well tacked anyway ...
I decided I didnt need the "swivel joints" anyway .. the sub frame is mounted on rubber bushings , and the whole tub will flex as a unit .. good to go !!

[Linked Image]

also started work on the rear tub member ... I dont think the thickness of the glass will be a problem , as the underside on this section is almost done anyway ..
still have to weld it ... but heres were I finished up the day at

[Linked Image]


sorry for the crappy pics... my "good" camera took a dive for the worst .. so i'm dealing with my phone for now ..
