It has begun...
I got nothing.
It just sounded like he was on a quest for weight reductions with earlier posts. Normally someone with a twin turbo engine doesn't mind spending a couple extra bux for something unless they didn't know what they were getting into in the first place

You also have to factor in it being tigged if he opted weld in which not everyone has access to.

Thanks for the compliments. I got a few things done. I got the majority of the pieces painted. All I have left is the dash and the rear hatch piece. I washed the pieces with soap and water, dried them, then cleaned them with alcohol, sprayed them with adhesion promoter and then painted them with the duplicolor vinyl and fabric paint.
I got a little over half the carpet done because I ran out of paint. I pulled the backing off of the carpet as well. I would have weighed it in the box, but my scale needs a new battery.
I also found $2.77 in change.

I didn't mean the carpet, I was talking about the Moly cage. How fast is this car going to be? Mild steel only good for 7.50 and you probably will fly with TT setup

I got the driver seat mounted. I cut two pieces of angle iron and welded them to the floor board. I'll take a pic of the brackets when the seats out, but this the picture that I have right now

What set did you o with?? I just finished my kirkey pro drags and opted to go with the racecraft brackets. Good to see your learning to weld though, if I knew how, it would have saved me the 200$ for the brackets..
