Keisler 5-speed conversion on Early A-body: Install has begun

Well I ended up welding in a piece of steel last night to give better support to the rear crossmember cutout. This was pretty cool because I ended up using the original piece I cut out. It was just about perfectly shaped already, it took just a couple minutes on the grinder and fit right in there. Man welding upside down is tough. This ought to do it though.
