Got the new belly pan about halfway done today. It's got an aluminum bar structure anchored to the rear beam this time to make it a bit more permanent and effective, and make it easier to integrate a full belly pan onto it. It'll also be easier to add the boat tail.

I'll go to Ax Man to get some more giant signs for cheap, spend way too much on more Al bars and start the boat tail. I work at Menards so I get a 10% discount, but it's still going to take a big chunk off the ole paycheck.

New rear tires are getting switched over tomorrow. 195/65/14 instead of 185/60/14, so they'll be taller and wider. Hopefully the skirts don't have to come off to get the new tires on.
