1969 Chevelle Build

Love the pics on the build. I was wondering since you dropped the frame, is your roll cage welded to the frame? , or the floor? My Impala my roll bar is through the floor into the frame. I did this for strength plus the crossmember where the upper control arms are attached to is the weak link in theses Impalas, they tend to pull out . I used a cross brace from the roll bar to strengthen this area. I guess Chevelles don't have this issue. Using the solid body mounts is a good idea. Just wanted to say great job, keep it up.
