Looks great! Have you figured out what you’re doing with your cold air intake/filter? Not a lot of space in the engine bay for it...

Nice fab on the core support for the p/s reservoir.

Awesome build and thanks for all the ideas. Was wondering what steering column you have installed in your car?

Thanks Brian, I am working on a plan to route CAI to the left side. The hole I cut in the core support is going to provide a air intake. I am building a screen to cover the opening. I started with some aluminum angle 3/4 x 3/4 that iI ripped one side down to create a recess for the screen. I cut and welded the pieces together added the screen then capped it with 3/4” wide flat stock. Here are a few pictures that might make more sense.

Thanks 214Chevy.

1965NOVA, The column is a Ididit brand.

Been pulled away for a bit and haven’t had much time, I have the core support in primer and mocked up the overflow tank, PS tank, air intake screen and the lower radiator mounts. Still have the upper mount to complete.

Thanks Trey. It came out better than I thought it would.

Thanks Tom.

Built a aluminum hold down for the radiator. Trying out some dimple dies.

Such a cool car.

214Chevy 08-21-2021 02:07 PM

The big brakes look so cool with the Weld wheels.

Nice fabrication going on here......

Shotgun panels..............OEMs use panels just this shape to brace firewall to wheelhouse. They provide impact attenuation and can be tuned for progressive crumple. Have to meet FMVSS crash test.
Practically every car worldwide uses them.
