    I have been working on finishing the floor. It stops about 8 inches from the rear of the car. In that area I will build a firewall, behind that will be the gas tank, battery, and fuel system.
    Also I got the firewall in. I made the bottom portion removable so It will drop down and slide out with the motor in place.

    I bent a piece of 18 gage steel and cut slots in it so I could bend it to get the radius of the roof back in it's original shape, then screwed the roof to it and tack welded the slits back up. The roof will be filled with a smooth look. I'm not going to do this. it will be farmed out. The angle iron will be removed.
    Another shot of the removable firewall. I'm working on the grill shell mounting bracket. the overfill tanks will be Incorporated into this.

    Looks like you are getting a lot of the strength and shape back into the body. I keep forgetting to ask you, there was a period where you were having ignition problems with the roadster, did you get that figured out?
