Maybe make it a flip-front if not?

I can drive it around the parking lot, but I need to do some more welding. I didn’t do anything to the steering column.

I figured that out on my own last night.

That's real progress. I have a car that's up on jack stands and a broken jack (for comparison purposes).

It will be interesting to see what you do with the wheel arches and rocker panels. Can you work in a three-inch drop in the front once the arches are cut out?
