Yes sir. We need to get that body on there so you can have time to tweak anything that might be needed. Did you already weld in the new pan?

But I'm done playing! Lol.

I've finally sorted out where everything is going to be placed and how all the electrical and air lines will be ran....just time to make it a reality!
