Here's another mini update.
The next thing I had to do was make up a tranny mount.

1. My dad who is great at this stuff, did the measuring beforehand. All I had to do was mark and drill the holes |
|

2. Here are the holes all drilled up. |

3. I cut an access on the other side. I will eventually box in the open ends of the tubes. |
|

4. Here's the tranny mount sitton on what will become the crossmember. |

5. Crossmember bolted to mount, mount bolted to transmission. |
|

6. Some tabs form the body side of the mounts. Here they are tacked in. |
I skipped the part where I drilled the side holes to mount the crossmember. I also skipped the part where I cut the tabs to fit. I made some good progress.
Everything is just tacked in right now. I forgot my welding helmet at home, and was just using some welding glasses that were not dark enough, so I will weld everything up next time.
