Great post Joe.
I know you’ve just joined Facebook/social media, so I’d like to hear your take on it, being the hold out that I am; but I’ve always felt platforms like this forum do connect us.
In some way were all dealing with a major disruption in our lives, yet here we are to escape that and find normalcy. I think. :)
Hope to talk to you soon.

Being military and deploying several times, I’ve seen true “pandemic”. Imo This is the first world, high privilege version. The statistics don’t add up for me. it’s very hard for me to ignore that it is an election year and we are literally on the brink of martial law over something that is less lethal than a number of viruses, including the common flu. I see the statistics for daily overdose deaths, yet I fail to see a community that rushes out of their homes for Narcan. I see obesity as being a top three cause of preventable death, yet I observe KFC introducing a donut fried chicken sandwich. I could go several layers deeper, but I prefer to simply leave it at the very direct statement that I care about each and every person here. I care about people in general, we don’t have to agree on the state of our current culture for me to say, I am here for you if you need me.

This world could use a lot more people like you...

Is it just me or in the pic with the underside fully painted, is it missing the tq box reinforcement on the drivers side? Figured they would go in before paint

No, you’re right. We decided not to weld them for the time being so I wanted to get some paint under them. After seeing how rigid the kit is, just as a bolt in, it’s pretty clear you’d have to abuse the daylights out of the car to “need” them welded in as well. It’s a street car that may see the track once or twice a year if that. Good eye though

Bent some channel and tacked it up to mount the pump/filters on. After welding them to the bumper and splashing a little paint on them to keep the rust away...pump sits exactly where I want it for the perfect money shot
