Well, I finally got over my fear of cutting into a pristine, unblemished floor and used a hole saw to gain shifter access, first dropping the tranny down several inches so I could bolt on the shifter plate. Of course, when I attempted to raise it back into position the hole needed to be enlarged to clear the new shifter stubA cutoff wheel in a die grinder fixed that - once the first hole is there it is lots easier to cut
Also bolted in the ratty Fiero seats so I can get the column ordered, but also thinking of getting headers in place before cutting the firewall to see what I have to miss with the column. I already have a set of sweet black covers for those seats, along with a great instructional CD from MrMike's in Florida - he specializes in Fiero seat re-upholstery as well as some other sporty car buckets - but I'm going to leave them in their original tatters until I am more complete.

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
