I made a adjustable stop for the clutch pedal. If the hydraulic brake master cylinder bottoms out ,it could damage the unit. Other items was mocking the gas pedal by reversing the studs on the firewall and throttle cable for the fuel injection.I welded in some 1 inch condit from inner fender to the radiator support so I can hide most of the wires .Instead of having them show in the engine compartment.

Modified the rear seat , I cut a 4"X4" square on each end then followed with some 1/4 CRS round bent 90 degress so the roll bar tubes can pass thru.

I had to make some new corner brackets out of some 3/32 steel plate because the cowl bar interfered with the originals. Other mods include Filled in front license plate area on the front bumper, deleted the buper bolt holes with a 3/8 studs welded on the back side for mounting to the brackets.I will have to shave the bumpers more to tighen up the gap between the bumper and the body.

I ended up welding the holes for the side markers on the fenders and quarters, Other holes welded up were trunk lock (I'm gonna run a electric trunk release) and antenna hole
