Back from a solid trip to Arizona… need to find a job so I can move there lol. Anyway back to regularly scheduled programming. Got all 3 seats mounted. Went with an alpha on the passenger so more people can fit. And redid part of the cage to enable it to fit. Now the driver being different drives me nuts so a new one is on order. (If anyone is interested in 2 brand new deltas I’ll sell them for what I paid for them. Heated. Located in Michigan.) Third seat has a surprising amount of leg space too.

Still out here paneling in stuff. First side is taking a little bit of time to make sure I’ve got a good understanding of how everything will seal up. Still learning with a beadroller so it’s not perfect but, we’re getting there.

Just a thought... Since the exhaust is right there would it help at all to double panel it? Meaning the panel you put on there is on one side of the the tube... If you did a panel on the opposite side would that insulate from the heat much?

That's my exact thought also. The plan is to wrap the headers/exhaust, then headshield the outside wall of the panel and do another panel inside with lizardskin sound deadener and lizardskin ceramic heat insulation on the inside panel so the firewall will be double paneled. Hoping the combination of all 3 will make it to where you don't even notice it.

Looks great man! Sealing up a cab when you are this deep is a lot of work, I feel your pain!

Thanks dude! I'm hoping all the thinking is on the one side and then I can just flip and repeat and the other side will go much faster. Trying to avoid as much welding as I can, so I'm trying to do the largest single pieces I can.

More paneling going down.

Some more of the metal stuff.

Well, ran out of argon so it’s off to making a grille structure and mounting the rest of the lights.

grille tube work design is nice and clean.

Thanks dude, probably going to add one more cross tube at the bottom of the FORD letters and connect the lower light tube to the middle with some 1/2" to give it a little more rigidity
