Old Man's 66 Cuda Funnycar build

Been down with a bad bug for 5 weeks , have started to do a little around the shop and house . IMG_2162.JPG

started the driver side floor frame .IMG_2163.JPG
welded 1inch tube into frame and boxed end .IMG_2165.JPG

the muffler will fit under the tubing with a 1/2 inch of space under frame work . Exhaust tip will fit in the notch at the end of the frame and come out under the bumper . see above pic for notch at bumpervIMG_2164.JPG
This is an exhaust port . it is 4 1/2 out side with a 1/4 thickness . the inside opening is 4 inches . I will cut them in half and install them in the lower side of the frame . doing this will allow the 3 inch exhaust tubing to sit up close to the floor and not hang down .IMG_2167.JPG
This pic shows how much room there will be with a 3 inch tube going thru it .IMG_2168.JPG
Also I had the 3 butter flies for the injector hat powered coated . looks great ... hoping to get back to working on my projects full time again ......
