68' Valiant 4 door

I've been checking in on your build every so often, this is turning out fantastic. I watch folks like you with mad fab skills, and think why do I bother?
thank you, but i look at some of the work others around here do and kick myself for being lazy and deciding "ahh, good enough" :lol:

please school me on the re-enforcing (?) that go from the rear upper shock bolts to the package tray.

to me it looks to be strengthening for the harness 'bar' under the package tray as the tray's not stiff enough on it's own. of course i could be talking utter rubbish so..... :lol:
neil.
nope, as usual you know just what your talking about :thumbsup:
trying to have a harness bar and keep the back seat usable, not so easy. when i had a schroth harness in my sti, it was easy, just attach to the rear seat belt mount in the C pillar. so i decided to try under the package tray, then figured tying it into something a little more stout would be a good idea. so i went to the upper shock mounts.
i used the heims and threaded rod because they were easy to fit things up with. probably going to change to solid bar stock, but they do look kind of cool when i open the trunk :lol:
i figure if i wreck bad enough for all that to tear out, it's probably the least of my problems :rolleyes:
