a good friend lent me his escort that has link boxes and turrets ,so we could have a easy time getting them in this car ,me bro and Turkish were giving me a hand last night we got them all well tacked in so axle can go in ,good thing is the axle we using came out of his car

made the floor sections as the old was rooten an we got the gear
