    Got a solid 10 hours on the chubby today. Basicly it was a day of fabbing up the floor tubing. Pics pretty much say it all. Took a lot of time to keep crawling back and forth from underneath it. But, needed to do that before I cut the doors loose. Towards the end of the day I had 10 mounting points tacked and bolted in and everything pretty much squared up so I was able to cut the doors loose. That was a lot nicer to do some more work without having to crawl underneath it anymore.

    I cut and welded pieces down the center for the driveshaft, that should work out pretty decent. Once welded solid I will cut the lower portion of the tube out. Not real happy with how the front x tube looks that goes over the tranny. I guess it seems like it should work, but just seems like there should be a better way to do that?? Everything is tacked to together so if I come up with something different in the next day or so, I'll redo it.

    Lot of snow fell today, so my morning tomorrow is going be spent plowing snow. But after that I hope to get going on it again. I think tomorrow I am going to start working on getting the doors swinging....that is going to take some time drilling and tapping plates.
