Rear clip and fenders are off due to me having to repeatedly pull the engine
and test fit stuff. GAWD I love my removable rear clip!

AAAAARRRGGGHHHHH!!!!! My front mount broke! Busted nosecone!
AIEEEE!!!
I havea spare nosecone lying around,
as well as a complete spare tranny (unknown condition)
But I was too tired to remove the engine and tranny so I decided
to take the easy way out and finish off yet another modificaqtion that
I had been planning for a long time. Solid front mount for the transmission.
This eliminates the need of that broken off front mounting point, so the car is
driveable at least again. Bought me some time.
This solid mount bolts on to the tunnel forks and the 4 bottom bolts
of the nosecone. Remove the steel bracket, and put back the 4 nuts and washers,
and it's back to normal, relying on the stock rubber mount again. (once I get the nosecone swapped)
Here are a couple more pics of the solid mount, in case someone needs some ideas.
