Look Ma, no wheels !!! The chassis is out in the driveway and the body up on a homemade wood truss stand. This is so I can finish up the undercar body structure.

the roof opens, the roof closes

So here is the sun roof in the "real car". I need to work on the video clarity.

Sun roof fun

So it has been 3 months!! I've been slowly working on fitting an 87 Acura sunroof into the "junk" car for practice before installation into the real project. One picture is of using a router to make a template from the sunroof hole in the 89 Acura we have. Then pictures of the template being used on the junk car and the last the sunroof temporarily in place to check the fit.

been working on the rear seat belt anchoring and nearby metal. One picture shows the right side "before" and the other the left side "after"

Don't have too many interesting pictures from June. So I thought I'd post this historical picture from earlier in the project showing the two "halves" coming together.

May 07 progress

Here is piece of the Passport "font pillar" that supports the dash welded in place
and a shot of the dash in place (for the umteenth temporary time). I also attempted
to "re-mount" the hood and hinges with limited success. This will have to wait until I seperate the body and chassis to access various places that can't be finished until I do.

fender fun

Cut out and welded back in the wheel well edge this last weekend. This went really well - yeah!!! This is the real version of moving the "hole" 3 inchese to the rear that is mocked up on the first picture posted on the blog.
