    Be careful lying under the car when it's sitting on the jack. I do see that tire under the front of the car, but it'll still hurt like a bitch if the jack fails, or you knock it off the jack. Just get something (cinder blocks or big chunks of wood) to use as jack stands, or if you've got the cash buy some proper jack stands. I know what it's like. I was there once (a long time ago), and yes, I did get under the car a lot without jack stands, but it's just not a safe thing to do.

    Good luck with the build. Make it a good one!

    Definitely x2 on the jack stand deal. Couple weeks ago I was working on my girlfriend's DA and it fell off the jack while I was getting out from under it - the pass. front tire rolled onto my ankle and the radiator support smashed my knee onto the shop floor. I was lucky that the car had all four tires on it, and it was stock ride height, else I'd have been in a whole other world of pain. For the record, it was the first [and last] time I've worked under a car without a jack stand.

    Safety aside, sounds like a kickass project! I wouldn't mind finding a 2WD wagon and dropping my B20 into it. :mrgreen:
