You're right, it sounded good...except fuel pump sounds like a shop vac

Too bad on the need to re-do

here is some more progress. I now have the Momo steering wheel in place via custom adapter I made, the Invictus race seats in place, and a good handle on fabricating the rear tail panel to accept the Marquez Designs billet 69 Camaro tail lights. The original rusted out tail panel needed to be cut out, new panels cut to fit, bead rolled, cut to accept the lights, smoothed, welded in, and final formed. Right now the drivers tail light is up to the final forming stage. If you look closely you can see I followed the body line on the outside edge and it fades out toward the bottom of the panel. For the seat brackets I made "pucks" that are tubing tig welded to a fabbed washer that bolts into the floor and adapt to the seat sliders that come with the racing seats I have. Then after locating and leveling they are tig welded to the adapter frame which one weld is shown. Im not sure if I showed pics of the over flow tank I built either but here is a pic of it. Its 3-1/4" aluminum tubing with aluminum TIG welded to both ends and it fills from the bottom to act as a real coolant expansion tank
