It will never get mounted, I just like putting it in and out of the car to take pictures of it. :lol:
More to come soon. Paint was a hurdle I've had to wait on around the schedule of a friend willing to carry half. Btw it's 250ft of tubing. Each side segment is 16 ft long if you can believe it.

Pass side B pillar attached, still need to do a few crossbars at the floor level for seat mounting, frame connections, ect but it will give a general idea of why I chose this b pillar location.

Hahaha I will, it's part of the process, I still have a gang of plastic trimming to do and it blows crap everywhere. I figured I'd wait till then. It will definately be done before the new carpet kit. And yes I will wipe down the 20 years of grime before the end also.

I know tony, your half the reason I took the time to re-remove it for paint btw. I was recalling how many good cages go to shit due to rust like we were talking about. Just the humidity of this last rain was enough to surface rust a few tubes. I'm not a fan of scotch briting anything by choice.

So as I was cleaning up I stopped to stare as usual... I had me a veeshion...
I think I'm going to try to gut my overhead control thingy and see if I can relocate the outside temp/compass thing and fit it into either the dash or the center console I have planned.
