I'm thinking about fab'ing an oversize tie bar. People will gaze in amazment at the size of my tie bar. They will say, "now that is one big tie bar!" Then they will attempt to touch it and I will have to say, "No sir! You most certanly cannot touch my tie bar.........but your girlfriend can!"

I'm going to start the "Big tie bar club" and have a site like RG3. Okay maybe not. I did click on the site you gave.......is that for real?

This boat thing is becoming an addiction. I'm jones'in for some fresh paint like you got Scottie, and I want to pull my tank like 502ss, and I want to be on youtube like Westcoast, on and on and on.............

Your boat is going to be the cleanest on the board the way you are going-even with the bastard 2 tie bars

Its worse than an addiction- its life in prison with no chance of parole. The best part about it is you meet the coolest people in this hobby, and we are all motorheads. Kind of like a frat party but without the beer and women- wait- thats whats wrong with this picture!!!

I stand corrected. 502ss is on youtube as well. But I belive Westcoast's boat was running in the bay. I think Westcoast gets points for having a boat ready to go, right now. Scottie150 has parts on the ground right now, so does Rookie, so does 502ss, me, well.........

Got the floor support built and put in- and I got the floor in today- so I guess you could say I made some progress. I still got to figure out what I should seal the seams with( any ideas Eddie?). I used 1/2 inch fiberboard( the stuff they use inside vans) and that stuff is stout. I haven't even screwed it down and it doesn't flex at all. Here are some pics-

Scottie...I am not familiar with this fiber board stuff you refer to. Where did you get it? It is a composite material. I think I will use the same for my floor!

Thanks
