Quote: Oh, I have my issues with rust, but all and all it's not to bad. Yes the subfloor is 1x1 tubing. It was started that way when I bought the car and I reworked it to fit what I was doing. I love your tunnel. Did you bend that up or have it done?

that tunnel was quite the project ! i bent that up the "old school" way..... made a couple of "paper dolls" from poster board. it took a few trys till i was satisfied with the fit. then transfered the pattern to 16ga. sheet. with a BUNCH of clamps, i then formed it around a piece of 12 1/2" pipe. this took a little heat to get it to contour corectly, [as well as a couple of afternoons.....] then trimmed to fit. the driveshaft tunnel was formed cold around a piece of 4 1/2" pipe after clamping a piece of 1/2 x 3" angle to the sheet to keep the "legs" of the tunnel from becoming round. a couple x-tra hands from the neighborhood kids helped a ton ! i am using 16ga. for the floor and tunnel because it was available CHEAP, and it fits the budget.
