Doubt that a shock mount would hold that way. Nut and washer on the bottom, maybe?

Correct, there is a plate with a nut welded onto it on the bottom.

This is where build trip #1 ended:
The guys are headed back to Wayne's shop in Alabama this afternoon and will finish the car this trip hopefully. I am leaving for Monterey for a week, so Tom will be handling daily updates for you guys until I return.
No update is complete without a photo to caption. Lets pick on the video guy this time:
"Good lord, son, your neck is missing!"

Looks like he's building by braille?

Why is it that you have to cut your own door openings? Couldn't they have been molded in?
Hey, take it easy on the new guy, he's my brother!
Look at the date, today is 818 day!
How about some new updates from the weekend?

I'm guessing for strength while shipping and before your ready to fit it. With that chunk removed it's going to be quite weak and breakable until fitted. You'd hate to damage it before your ready to use/install it.

While I operate in the same danger zone, I tend to have a death grip on what my friends affectionately call "Killer"
In reply to NOHOME:

+eleventy-billion. flat bills are whack. I want to punchify "kids" who do that.
Much like the saggy pants, the real reason why the bills are left flat is not known to the copy-cats. (allows people to return them to the store, so they look like they have money because they are always changing hats, but in reality they are only "renting" them, which is just berkeleying gross)
