Looking good guys!

Now how exactly do you secure the floorpanels....Do you weld them to the subframe/backhalf rails? Or do you somehow bolt them down?

mine is aluminum and rivetted in place except for the panel between the wheel tubs above the 4 link bars, that us removable with dzus fasteners. it is nice to be able to make 4 link adjustments from inside the car.

Yeah they weld in, I'll post some more pics tomorrow. The cage and sheetmetal are done now. The bars that go out to the front of the car weren't any fun. All that is left is
seam sealer
paint
install chute
install wheelie bars
install lexan windshield
finish headers
plumbing
wiring

the list has finally gotten shorter.

I hear ya, I did all the sheetmetal before the cage just so it was easier to install after. Seemed like a bunch of wasted time but it sure was nice after the cage was in to just notch it out.
