Its been a while but I have a ton of updating to do so I made the decision and dumped the old heater channel since it had all the old damage and cut off the Klassicfab heater tube and added the OG one back on.

They are aftermarket floor pans none of the stamped holes lined up to the OG wholes from the pans I took off so I had to improvise and make the wholes match up to the body. I think your mega is confused the only mega I know of is Danny Way's.

Super excited about getting back on the split. A lot more to do but slow and steady.
No completed on all welds will finish once apron is fitted.
Props to Wolf and his killer metal!
Not using this OG apron that I spent 40 hours on dollying to its kinda original shape. _________________ 1951 Split Standard Hoffman Build
