Your rear metal work is very nice. Did you make the new trans tunnel or buy that some where? I want to do that to my 93 so I can really slam it.

I made it. I just bought a 4 x 8 sheet of .045" aluminum. I made patterns out of poster board and used them for the carpet as well.

Then from the looks of it you just used rivets and silicon sealant? Thanks for the information.

EDIT: I'm going to be mocking this up tomorrow. How far from the top of the hump did you start cutting?

If you are referring to piece of tubing the fuel pump is mounted to, that is only ¾” chromoly tubing. If I get to the point where I need one, and I hope I do, I will just get one from a sponsor that attaches to the rear bumper mounts.

As far as the fabricated hump, I just started cutting, working around the seam that is about halfway up that back wall.
