Got my hood hinges installed. Surface mount hinges are just installed with self tapping screws for mock up right now.

Well, Bonneville World of Speed has been amazing. Couple runs tomorrow yet with my friends car. Still trying to get the licensing to run flat out. Met lots of great people who are now friends. Fever has full set in...
 
Getting close to being ready for chassis paint. Welding in some tubing under the drivers seat for solid mounting. I want to triangulate the lower door bar to meet at the frame rail at the junction with the upper door bar yet. I want to put in an X under the center console also. I am waiting for a response to whether the "kidney" bar with seat mount I added is sufficient to meet the "seat shall be supported in a way to not allow rearward collapse". Or I will add a vertical plate or tube and just be done with it. Paint will hopefully go on in the next 10 days or so. Fingers crossed.
