Good progress mang, we want pics though 
pics for the whiners...
heres the hole on the right side for the steering. key note: harbor freight metal hole saws will not cut through anything thicker than 20 ga sheetmetal....
heres the steering box. it still needs degreased and painted up, but for mock up reasons it hasnt gotten much attention..
heres the steering column mounted. it was loosely mounted in the pics, but afterwards i bolted it up securely and it sits about and inch higher. i will get some pics up with the steering wheel mounted later...
heres the dash mounted. i just need to make a filler peice from the windshield to the dash and it will be golden.
i keep doing things to make my build harder and not easier, but i figure i might as well do it if the truck is torn apart, so i bought upper and lower fd rx7 intake manifolds. turns out u just use the upper with the fc lower, but i have to build an adapter and get some other parts to make it work, but the reason for this is less restriction and also it is easier to setup a fmic to and also it just looks about 100 times better imo...
and heres the turbo mani teaser. lol. great teaser right?
it will not look anything like this when its done obviously...
and heres the door panels i got. just need some controls for them and either dye them black or rewrap them. they will have to be cut up pretty good, so they will prolly have to be rewrapped, but theyre in pretty good shape...
well hopefully i can get some more done this weekend. today was supposed to be a garage day, but i have been running around all day like a chicken with my head cut off, so ya, hopefully i get some s**t done and can get some more pics up for u guys...
the build lives, i promise!
