how about a few small weekend photos... The firewall panels are now ready to beadroll tonight and get welded on ! More welding done on the rear filler panel, a little progress on the dash, and picked up a smooth top and a super nice gate thanks to Tracey Morris !

also bolted in my Slosh Tubz (note: for the early clip the pre drilled holes are wrong , other then that they fit great) Can anyone tell me what year my front clip is ?

Wow! I looked briefly at your other build, and I read this from the beggining til now, just wow! Can't wait to see it finished. Like the ideas floating around with the woodsides and ochre paint, put some surfboards up top and you'd be set!

Last nights progress my friend Gary Angel tested out his new bead roller on my firewall panels ( I would have done it myself but I didn't have the time to do it 3 times ! LOL) Cant wait to get off of work tonight and get it welded up ! Also fellow board member came up with me a matching valve cover !

hmmm...cant load pics this morning , I have them sized the same as I always do and it wont load them ?

Mike, I've been having the same trouble with pics. I can't get it to load one at a time, it just comes back with "load failed"...Jim

BTW, I'm jacking this idea for my 5.3.... hope that doesn't hurt your feelings! I have two of these covers laying around so this is better than them hanging on my shop wall!
