Thanks for all the comments guys. Been a long road doing everything on this car myself. Lots of work, with little time to spend on it. Finally feel like I have turned a corner and can start to see the finish line.

This weekend was spent getting the interior sheetmetal prepped and black DP90 epoxied. Something I should have done a long time ago, but just kept putting it off until now. While I let it sit and fully cure, I tackled a few other things that needed to be done before I Dynamat the floors.

I started the day with figuring out where to mount to battery box and fuel vent from II Much Fabrication. I am happy with the placement.



After that was done, I drilled the holes and mounted the wire harness pass thru I am going to be using. Something a little cleaner looking than a regular grommet.


​​



Then I took care of drilling the holes and mounting the heater hose barbs. I had welded up the holes in the firewall where the factory hose would have gone. I will now be running the hoses thru the finer well and then into the cowl from the wheel side of the apron.






Also, mounted the Lokar shifter. I had drilled the holes for this a few years ago when the seats were in the car. Now i needed to reinstall the shifter so I can locate the console I will be running. I need to fab up mounting tabs for the console, and the shifter will locate where everything else mounts.

I like that billet pass through, who is that made by?

That battery box looks nice, but it seems the terminals sit awful close to the surrounding metal top part? We're sure that we are probably missing something in the equation.

Very cool! Everything is great, miss the 1st rear spoiler but the car is so awesome I'll forget all about it.

Watson's Street Rod as best I recall.

It is an illusion. That is the top of the seat back support you are seeing, and it is behind the battery box.
