What are you doing where the tank was, mine looks the same way. I got my tubs in but I need to figure out what I am doing with that big hole where the tank was.:dontknow: I got some metal to cover the hole and might do a fuel cell. Yours looks great.
 
Im definately not looking forward to mine this winter or whenever i decide to start on it......i have to do a 10pt., subframes, and possibly a mini tub. and im smoothing the engine bay.

Yeah i finished smoothing the engine bay about a month ago..

I wanted to do the tub's before the cage due to me cutting up the frame in the back a lil and re-boxing in parts..

But to come is a 12 point, thru the floor sub frames and some other stuff to make it 25.5 cert.

I'm going to have to order the cells and figure that out more once I get them..

I have to fit a 12 gallon fuel cell and a 10 gallon one for the intercooler..

But basicly im gunna put the rear back in do the coil overs and set the car up how it should sit..

I want to draw a imaginary line from where teh tire touches the ground to the bottom of the bumper so i know how low i can mount the cells with out them havin the possibility of hitting the ground if it makes it way onto the bumper on day..

I have a bunch of 3\4 x 3\4 square stock im prob going to use to build cages to hang the cells..
