What are your plans for the floor and fire wall?

What are your plans for the floor and fire wall?

Minimal. The floor will just be where your feet go, and the firewall will basically just be a flat piece if 16 g steel, cause I have it.

Lookin real good mon.....

Wow, so this thing is pretty small. Pedals are going to be next to the exhaust manifold. Also, a helmet is a close fit. I'm 6'2" though.

did you sit in it or take some general measurements before beginning to build the cage?  hopefully its not too tight!  nice helmet dude lol.  I like the "Baja" stance of the buggy. is it going to stay that way or are you going the lift the back a bit?

[NITE KRAWLERS]

Ha ha that helmet is legit man but ya that does look a bit tight! Sink the floor a bit??

The seat was just propped up there in that pic. Actual seat mount will be about 1-2" lower. It's all good. I based the floor to arm bar and arm bar to roof measurements off of an f-toy, so it's gonna be fine. I wanted tight, and I got it. The front won't be that much higher than the rear, but it will have a little baja style to it. Here is the front end.





Not quite done, but getting there. Ran out of tube, again.

looks good man, nice and simple

[OldGold3VZE]

Far from done. Can't believe how fast the tube goes.

[NITE KRAWLERS]

It looks ready for the trail now. !!! Ha ha looking good man, keep at it!

[Slolyfe]

Sweet! Tube disappears way to fast for the price!

5 days off work after today. Hoping to get seats and pedals mounted as well as radiator and some of the firewall and floor. Really trying to bust this out quick. Yeah right.

Since it a blizzard outside, I figured I'd sketch up some skin ideas. I need to add a cowl and raised hood to clear the brake booster and propane mixer. Here's what I threw together.

But then I scored this...

Oh yea!  That looks really good.
