I got my new firewall back from the fabrication shop and they did a great job. I fabricated a piece to mount it in the middle of the stock firewall to keep it from flopping at the bottom. Pic was before I spent several hours getting holes drilled for the stainless button head mounting bolts. Now I have to figure out how to keep it looking nice!

Took apart the grill, sandblasted the pieces and bondoed where needed. They are getting primer on them now in prep for paint.

Been working on finishing up heat shield and underlayment. Putting one front power window in this weekend to see how it works. Man that windshield urethane is expensive. Next up will be putting the wiring in in prep for starting it up.

Really cleans up that part of the car, looking good.
