A good view from the side as the floorpan replacement continues. The driver's side floorpan has now been bolted to the heater channel. Don't forget to seal it good! There are gaskets and sealers available. The next photos I post should show it welded in. :)

ARCHIVED CHEROKEE PRINT: This is the print that defined me as an artist in high-school, the print that literally spawned all of this.
Up to this point, I'd produced t-shirt and silk-screen prints, but nothing very complex, nothing with any theme, nothing with any staying power.
The original version of this print was 11x17 inches, drawn on heavy paper stock. I did it to impress some girl. It ended up impressing a large number of them!
What you see here is a photocopy of the original print, reduced to 8x10, so most of the detail is gone. A careful eye can pick out the note that I had planned to re-draw this print. I've been planning to do that for 20 years now! This was my first King Tut drawing and, as it would turn out, my best (to date).
I studied Egyptian hieroglyphics in high school, so you can bet your bottom dollar that the hieroglyphics actually say something. But I wouldn't have a clue how to decipher it today. Also, you may notice the words "History of Mystery" among the hieroglyphs.
Gosh, but what a man must do to impress a girl. I'd better quit typing here and get back to what I'm drawing today.
