    Finished the passenger side floor supports. So now the front floor is completely done!! I Built a box on the drivers floor, since i put the tubing in about an inch off. So I welded some plate to the floor, then another plate flush with the tubing and boxed the sides off. It should be plenty strong, I just wanted something so the bolt won't pull through the 16 guage floor. It's not finish welded, 11 o'clock was getting a little late for a school night, so I'll clean it up tomorrow!

    I think the carb will be okay, not the prettiest but nothing else on the jeep is clean, so it won't stand out. As for Bob's comment about me knowing what to do if it gives me trouble. That's why I wanted to rebuild it myself. Yea I could pay someone to fix it and it would be perfect. But then the day it floods or won't idle I'll have no clue what to do. I got the last of the screws and brackets painted, so the only thing stopping assembly is me getting away from that welder!
