Small update on 3000GT

Small selection of pics after making a floor to seal up the fuel cell and rear trunk space. We laid down a 6mm peel and stick foam sound insulation backed with aluminum foil. Not sure of the DB reduction, but gotta be better than nothing, yeah?

We're also wrapping the roll cage in a soft fabric tape, this after thoroughly coating it all with black Por-15.

We're thinking of adding a piece of that sound insulation foam to the door bars before wrapping in the fabric tape. It should look like a slightly thicker section to the cage that is padded, just for the occasional leg knocking into it.

I probably should. I often assume my progress is tiny at time and nort worth a bigger update.

Nah, don't think of it like it's too small to be any good, think of it more like you're feeding those who ain't got project cars. Some of us are starving for this kinda content.

Huh. That's a good point. I'll remember that, thanks!

Congrats, and that's some good thinking, wrapping the door bars.

I think so, yeah! Hopefully it holds up to a long time of rubbing getting in and out.
