It is in really good shape so all we did was clean it and paint the inside. Just doing a test fitting and thinking this might be a good position for the PCM. Will plug weld the riser in later once I have the wiring and PCM mounting sorted out.

And it is more comfortable laying on a flat floor working under the dash anyways.
It's funny you say this as I was working on repairing the back of my seat riser yesterday where I cut the rear flange off. It didn't realize how to do it correctly until cutting mine out.

Did you have (2) support brackets that went between the floor and the seat riser to support the seat? If so can you snap me a couple pics of yours as mine were a little mangled and I need to fab a new set.

Looks great I really like bottom of the body shot.
