r200 q45 is in....

this took forever...... fuck 30 year old chassis'.... shit just doesnt "bolt - in"... everything needs to be pushed, pulled, twisited, widened, shortened... everything..... i finally got to drill the mounting points for the cage... once its in, i plan on welding some 12 gauge sheet metal tying the chassis to the cage... i think the cage warped when we put it in so i bought some clamps to spread it as wide as i can.... I also to draw placement on my new wider fenders... i was only able to cut out one side... shit is fucken thick... shieett.... also got to wire brush the q45 r200 diff, steering shaft, steering shaft brackets and painted them.... rustoleum metallic black... shit looks good.... i just wanted to spray it with something so it reduces the chances of it rusting.... neways... here are the pics...

the clamps, the closest i can get it to....
