And on a side note... Brandi had a Dr's appointment today... We met up with a fabricator that will be building the complete 10 point certifiable cage for her... Swing out door bars, halo, main hoop etc... The rear bars will pass over the back seat and drop into the trunk and the front down bars will drop through the dash.

We are going to remove what is already installed and then strip the interior. We will also be pulling the glass front and rear so the bars can all be welded full circumference.. We'll reinstall the interior minus the head liner and have an upholstery shop build a custom head liner and install it...

The airbags for the entire car minus the steering wheel and glovebox will be removed... We determined that we can't build the halo for someone my size that is legal with any sanctioning body... So back to square one... Not a big deal as we will sell what I have... If anyone is interested, pm me and I'll hook you up...

When we pull the motor and trans, we will send the trans back to RSG for some TLC and to swap out the input shaft... It's twisted... I will let Thomas at Hendrix look at the clutch and determine its condition. I'll either carry on with it or let him rebuild it... Depends on the wear...

And we are soon to be determining exactly which motor we are going to spec and get it on order...

We will be building the brackets and installing the new additional Weldon External pump as well... No more head gaskets due to being a bit lean...


Lots to do before October... We'll geterdone....
