The wife and I have been working on our Ghia.

We mounted both driver's and passenger seats last weekend and front hood.

The passenger side is a little closer to the dash because lack of forsight in the placement of the waterline bolts under the car. It actually helps because the passenger doesn't need to sit as far back. Also if I was any taller at all, I think I would need differant seats. They are as far back as possible. And at 6ft tall, I'm almost out of leg room. My head comes close to the roof.

This weekend...
Welded 6an fittings to the bottom of the tank, both send and return. I still need to seal the inside and paint the outside.

Made a bolt on spare tire mount in the trunk.

Spare tire bolted in, the plastic peice holding the spare tire down is out of my new beelte.

Both hoods w/pulls and both doors. Also the rear apron is bolted in too.



I removed the seats so I can park the car outside. The rear is still high since there is no engine.

I'm ready to drive this beast!
