This is another place where the plan keeps changing. I think I know how I want it but my lacking in bodywork skills might shine

What is that you put between the stringers?

The cross braces, or fuel tank?

I got out to the shop for a little bit tonight and started on the top of the dash, remember I'm no body guy and have to think about how to accomplish what I want this thing to look like. I'm fairly pleased so far.

I'm using 1/4" poly honeycomb coring material that bends real nice, I will be using this to fill in the deck too.

I got a nice package from wintech with some new steering parts today and just had to get out in the shop and play for a bit. I was having troubles with the 14" steering wheel, it just felt awkward sitting in it so I went down to a 12" wheel and it's so much better. I also started to test some ideas for the deck the center will be on a removable type hinge so that I can take the center out and add a second seat, other than hippie not to many people are willing to sit on nitrous bottles.

Looking good! I'm gonna have to come down and check it out and lend a hand perhaps one of these days real soon.

Oh yeah, nothing wrong with sitting on the NOS. Just keeping the tank temps up.
