Adam,

Yep, been a while. I have been really busy with work and family
obligations. But have been squeezing in some time to work on
the Tomato. I have been making the tranny tunnel and new floors.
The floors have been no problem, but the tunnel has been harder
than I thought. I made a rectangular tapered tunnel with some
16 gauge sheet metal, but am not happy with the results. Looks
ameaturish. I have been contacting a few hot rod parts builders
to get dimensions of thier tranny firewall/covers/tunnels, but most
look to large for my application. I am going to give it one more
try on my own. We have a large metal bender here at work, so
I will try and bend up a new tunnel, and post some pics if it
looks descent.

Sorry for taking do long guys, but I want to do this right... stay tuned...
