I'm finishing up the interior, of my car... I just did a bar, a bunch of bodywork, and finally had the car painted... The motor still needs to be assembeled and installed, but the car itself is finally coming together... Anyway, I didn't want a back seat in the car... I switched from maroon interior to gray, and with the home made x bar the backseat was pretty much useless... I wanted something a bit different so a buddy of mine made this up with a bit of help from me... It's raw right now, but I'll get it carpeted tomorrow night with matching carpet...

One question, is the hoop welded to the frame or is that a plate welded to the floor...

The main hoop only goes to the floor, the rear bars and front bars go to the frame... Is that going to be ok, or will I have problems with that???

Hahahahahaha, I'm a dumbass... It does actually go to the frame... He has the plate welded to the floor and I thought the bar just went to the plate, but it actually goes through the floor to the frame... Phew... My stomach was turning all day thinking about not passing tech after all this work...lol... I did get the backseat carpeted tonight though... I'm happy with it... Thanks for the advice Jack...

Phew..... no kidding, that's good news... I hated to point that out, but had to for your benefit. It would suck getting to tech and finding out there..
