Two atmospheres are better than one
Awe man did he use all CAPS on you or did he go BOLD AND CAPS?
Neither lol. I'm just giving him **** for asking me why I was making my car so heavy. Bill doesn't actually get mad unless he gets wet from the rain.
Yep, the dude is really nice
Did he ever cook or buy you a steak, that's what real nice guys do. lol
No, not yet lol
I only yell at Korie because that seems to be the only way for me to see him make progress on his build, plus I want him to do it right.
PS.... I don't really yell, he just calls it that when I point something out. lol

He bought my girl and I a steak in Vegas. He wouldn’t let me pay.
You guys made the drive all the way out there just to meet up and hang out. It was the least I could do....especially since I absolutely enjoyed it. Can't wait to do it again!
I finished installing the floors, I'm not super happy with it but it will work. Tommorow I will go underneath the car and do some 3 second tacks every inch & add a couple anti pop can strips underneath like my good buddy @-Boosted- advised. I did it on 1 area & it worked very well.
I also cut the remaining wheel tubs out, that would be the outer tub and that was a serious ****** and I have a million tiny burns now.
So much fun !
Also here's a sucky picture of 2 new kittens that showed up... they're very sweet.
Thanks for following along !

Looks good! What are the anti pop can strips?
Moving right along, very nice work. You're adding more skill to your resume daily.
It's just some 2 inch thick strips of metal welded in underneath to keep the floor from popping like a pop can if you squeeze it .
Thank you for saying that. This part of the job is much more patience testing than I was hoping for but yeah I'm glad to be learning.

That makes sense. I'd love to see photos if you remember. I fought the issue on my trunk pan and had to do some shrinking to cure it. It was a quite aggravating.
Yeah I will tomorrow.

That'd be great. Thank you!
as I think about it, it actually is shrinking the panel with the cooling of the tack welds
Thanks, just was fighting with some welds popping a few minutes after I welded them and it made some bumps and some of the area were really difficult to get a nice tight fit so it burned through a few times, other than that I'm happy, that just caused more work which was the unhappy part but it will get covered up anyways lol. Thanks againNot sure what you’re unhappy about, I think it looks great! You have a very nice looking driveshaft tunnel, especially considering it was all done by hand, don’t be so hard on yourself
You are moving right along so keep up the good work. Did I ever tell you I love kitty cats.
Yep, I posted those kitties for you lol.
Thanks John!
I went under the car and did all the welding I was planning, looking like I need to buy a another sheet of steel for the back half and tubs.
I also got bored during the rain today and did a little something to the gas filler hole.
The picture on the bottom is the anti pop can strips @mopowers
