    Cool thing that went down, is the tech writer Brad came by to snap some photos and get a feel for the project he has been handed.

    so while they did that i put a chip in the truck... powerhungry Gryphon Dash Mount.

    Hey Frank, My bro-in-law has a '68 in his barn that he's going to restore one day. Give me a holler with what measurements you need, I'll see if he can get them for you.

    Well as of right now everything that we see is that the seat foams comes in sets so we don't really need it. but we do appreciate the jester.

    so since your going through do you need a place to stop?

    Nice work Frank and Jason.:beer: I think you both should come to Alabama for a weekend and help me finish my Jeep. As quick as you both work, it would not take long.

    Great build, and good luck.

    The seam will be spoted back like it was originally. Then a piece of sheetmetal will be layed over the gap to fill the diff and the seams welded back smooth.
