Yep, it gets worse as I add the funnycar cage. I plan on adding removable joints in my hips and knees to make it easier to get in and out. :icon_albino:

Made more progress, pulled the oem steering column out and getting ready for an aftermarket column with removable steering wheel. Practiced a bit with the tig and got one side tacked in, a couple of my tack welds don't even look like complete poo. Got part of the funny car cage fitted.

Fire that welder up and finish it!
Good move with the removable wheel, its going to help you shoehorn in a lot. If you dont want your wheel to wobble get a MW hub. -
Eh, I'll let someone that knows what they are doing finish all the welding. I practiced enough that I feel ok tacking things together but thats it. I'd have to practice a lot more before I felt comfortable doing the welding.
The hub I got is competition engineering, hopefully it's decent.

Little more progress, got as far as I can with the material I got. Everything is tacked in, I'm starting to feel sorta comfortable tack welding with the tig. Note to self, don't forget to turn the gas on. lol
Looks good Dave, gonna do a little rewiring while you have it apart?

Are you moving the drivers side helmet bar back and using the offset passenger bar halo tie in?Eh, I got it fitted and tacked in already and I don't think it's going to be that bad to get in/out of so I'll prob leave it.
