Default Re: SS/Comp Style Cobalt build

Was able to get the majority of the floor structure completed this weekend. Trying to fit everything in this little car take a lot of planning. With the way the OEM floor is built, the tubing must go inside the car which eliminates being able to build the floor structure under the car then remove it to weld it up. With a lot of planning and little luck my inner frame rails tie into the FJ Smith front sub frame which allowed me to rotate them for welding since they are reinforced with a sleeve. They were then rotated down and welded to the reinforcement plates after all of the measurements were re-verified. The end goal is the be able to complete the chassis without cutting the roof off. I think with enough planning and forethought it should be possible.
