    I ran the straps through the door opening on the roof right behind the A pillar. I missed a couple bolts hidden under the firewall and lifted up the whole front of the chassis. it bent up the drip rails on both sides causing maybe the worst body damage the car has suffered in its 70 year life . o well at least i had the sense to not run the strap through the windows so i at least saved the doors from damage

    Hey falconvan, My floor looked a little like that in the front when I got it. I cut it all out and started over with moving the firewall back about 3". The center to rear was ok to an extent. I wasn't going to jump in that far when I started mine either, but like my father said This car thing is a sickness and once you got it there is no remedy. Oh yea, Is it Fall already? I see you are working on it. Keep on crackin man, you got the sickness. Ain't it sweet!!
