Thanks guys. Sorry not a lot of commentary with the photos. I have a few more I'll upload and post. I'm happy to answer any questions on the build.

I've had more than a few say nice "body swap". This is not a body swap. That is where they skin the donor car and put a shell on it. They are skinning off the outer part of the structure. I didn't want to go that way. I have used 2x5 rails that become the structure that both the floor sections and the RR attach to. This is in multiple layers, so strength is at a maximum. To date, 40 ft. of weld has been laid in this car, one tack at a time. Close to being on the rotisserie where I can seam seal and undercoat the bottom. I'll finish out the engine compartment and paint along with the interior and trunk. After that it's pretty much just reassembly. Lay the harness's, install suspension and engine, etc…
Will post pics as all those things start to happen. You may need to remind me!
