Been putting my 78' F350 back togather from a frame off. Made openings in a new carpet for the belts and seat... a small propane torch, a 1/2" copper coupling, needle nose vise grip and it was a piece of cake.

I was wondering just the other day how your rebuild was going. That's pretty ingenious btw.

i see you have a little helper.

miss my little helper. she died 2 years ago and it still upsets me from time to time.

she helped me work on trucks, build guitars, surf the internet. that little cat just wanted to be with me. my little shadow for 17 years

EDIT: i used to call her my QUALITY CONTROL INSPECTOR
