That's not really bad at all. You have floor boards and a great start. It sure came with some extra :dung: though didn't it? :)

This intrigued me...

she likes trying to make it look good.lol. i do most of the mechanical part. like the team rush, i did the stealth hei but the put it in the jeep. thats whats cool about the jeep. its a project for us. o i forgot to tell you guys another thing she has done. when i had my monte carlo ss she helped me pull the 305 out and dropped in a 355. she had fun with that.
 
ill have to get more pics. theres rust hole all over the inside and out. it looks like swiss cheese. i have more rust holes on the inside than drain holes.lol
 
one bonus in the mess was a high lift jack.:D

A little duct tape and some spray paint will take care of the rust holes.:D

That does look good. And, nothing wrong with Sunpro at all. Actually I was running autometer until I went out wheeling and broke the oil pressure guage. It litterally fell apart inside it's casing. I am slowly transitioning back to Sunpro because I dont want to spend the cash for fancy guages that can break.

Im not positive...but I dont think you are supposed to be able to see daylight through there. :eek:
 
Tell everyone you put those holes there so you could see whats underneath while you are wheeling. A true hardcore wheeler. Function over form!
