Loved the pictures.. im only 25 as well hahaha, im currently devising a plan on making the front and middle floorboard with brushed diamond plate, got the carpet torn out , im going to keep the heat sheild in there, and was thinking of going with high nuts because i dont want to drill through the body,but then again i need to find pretty narrow nuts to fit small screws which will hold down the diamond plate

Thanks too bad my wallet doesnt feel the same way! Biggest thing that sucked was having to get a dual keyway crank. Plus i decided that i wanted to get a bigger stroke and displacement so i made it a square block 4.500 bore x 4.500 stroke so its a 572. I forgot that it meant instead of just getting a set of lower compression blower pistions that i had to get longer rods along with my dual keyed crank... (4 grand later lol)

So i widened my fender 14 inches to fit the 54" tires. So the way i did it was just free handed the design i wanted then chopped that section out and stretched it. Then i made a flat center section. Not to shabby for a poser with minimal fab skills! Im not sure why i spent so much time on this, its just gonna crunch the first time i roll it! Lol
