Pulled out the steering wheel and the dash today.
Drilled the holes to mount the firewall brake pedal.
I need to get a bigger hole saw for metal to drill the center hole.
Not much but it's some progress.

Don't give up, it's far too much fun once you can drive it.

Not much happening. Out of sheet metal as well as the funds to buy some.
Life gets in the way.

2 for 1 day today.
After messing with the cCaddy hood we turned towards the Mopars.
Went to work on stripping out the donor Dodge.
Quick and dirty.
I will continue to pull some odds and ends before it get removed.
We then drilled the MC hole in the fire wall on the Dodge Custom.
I also did a quick sipher on how much more sheet metal I will need for the floor.
Of course half a sheet is not enough and a full sheet will leave me with left overs.(As if there is such a thing as left over steel.)
Pics tell the story.

It seems no one wants to haul the donor Dodge to scrap.
Plan B is that Jon and I will cut it up into pieces and haul it there ourselves. Oy......
Like I haven’t enough to do already.
Keep on keeping on.....
