Nice work so far. It does seem to take forever. No need to remove the roof however, even though it does make it easier. We just set the cage down through the floor after all tacked in. Welded up as much from the top as we could. Set the cage back up on the under car bars and welded the rest from in the car.

That's a really nice job. How in the world do you get into that car lol ?
Thank you, I will be doing the next car differently. Build a chassis and set the car on top.
I had planned to cut the roof off since day one.
It was a vinyl top car out on the rainy Washington coast so it was in really bad shape.
I have a replacement in very good shape going back on asap.
I'm wondering if I need to gusset any of my bars even though I did weld all tubes fully around.
