I assume that seat mount is bolted to more than just the floor

Didn't feel like taking off the whole front clip to do so. Everything is all pretty freshly painted & also going to tie the front engine plate mounts into the snout bars also.

It is bolted thru the facory four holes which have the extra reinforcement plates under the floor pans. We may still tie it with some smaller tubing & tabs underneath as well.

I am not sure. It is a very old unit. Don't see the brand name anywhere on it. I think It is an old Medford brand with the air/Hydraulic unit added. Still works great.

Thanks. Yes, it is coming out awesome. I am more than pleased with the results as we go. Not bad for a couple of guys in a garage.

Got the passenger side door "X" brace & several more under car bars done last night that tie at the front & rear of the frame connectors. Its getting close to having the Fab part done. Down to just the p.s. snout bar, 2 small bars tieing in the snout bars to the front plate, 1 more bar under the driver seat out to the rocker, window net frame/structure & parachute lever mount. More pics to follow.

Thanks. Yes we have a SFI book. I bought my c.m. tubing from Dillsburg Steel. They were the least expensive I found. Around $600.00 for all the needed sizes for enough tubing to do the entire 25.5. Motorstate Distributing is a good place too if you just need some 4',6' or 8' c.m. drops.
