Sorry about the delay. Here are a couple of pics just before I picked it up to come home. I have started to put together the car with all new hardware (grade 8) and weld on all of the tabs, i.e. (seat mounts, power steering, coil mount, spare tire mount, etc) I'll post more pictures soon.

More pics with the wheels on it. These aren’t the wheels I will be running. I plan on using 15x4 rims with 33x10.50 on all four corners.

I just got through building the seat brackets. It took me awhile to find 1"x1" .065 wall square tube. (Aircraft Spruce) I also welded on the oil filter bracket and coil mount.

I was going to mount the power steering reservoir right here but I decided to mount it closer to the fuel cell and away from the engine / brakes. Plus I needed to move it out of the way to have a place to mount my spare tire right above the trans. I saw this trick little mount and thought that I would make some thing similar.
