Looks like someone is trying to drive off with your shell in the last pic.

So I held off on putting the body on the frame for a few days I have been finishing my floor pans off. I ended up not using the US drivers side front so I had to pull it out and get the made in Taiwan panel.... boy did it fit nice
Spend the day cutting and welding it in with my oldest son who has never mig welded before. Had a great time with him on it. Yesterdays mistake however was a decent one. I was cleaning the welds up with the grinder and sanding wheel when my hand slipped and the wheel caught my right index finger on the top of my nuckle.... Ouch to the bone in .003 seconds at a 1/4 inch wide... needless to say I felt like a dumbass and said so to myself  So took the rest of the night off and will get back to it tonight and hopefully get it all primed up |

Well maybe a few blue words in there somewhere
 I did get my Drivers floor in and finished... I am seriously considering pulling the passenger side out and redoing that side as well....... the Taiwan pan is so much nicer |
