Thanks for sharing your videos. I'm Happy to see you build it up.

[@Maine_A_S]

Thanks. I appreciate you watching.

[@gwolfe1231]

Yeah, love the faux rivet idea. Very creative.

[@Maine_A_S]

Thanks. I can't take the credit since I'm sure I stole the idea from someone else. It definitely looks better than a hex head bolt though.

I'm trying. Falling behind on posting new videos. Editing is extremely time consuming. Thanks for watching.

What did you do with the diagonal cross members you fabricated to the frame in the last video?Im not seeing them. I like the look and fit of those allen key cap bolts.What do you use to fill in the holes?

[@Maine_A_S]

I set the rear X section off to the side for now. I still need to drill the holes to mount it. I didn't bother yet just in case I have to make any changes once the engine is in place. I'm not sure what I am going to fill the bolts with just yet. I was thinking a dab of body filler. Other people recommended welding and grinding them round. We'll see. Thanks for watching.
