Re: my 50 build... why not?
Got some work done this weekend...
The new steering column was longer than I had hoped, but we got it to work. I took off the bottom retaining plate of the column and welded it to a 2.25" pipe, then welded it to the floor. It acts as another support.
I also got rid of the humps on the lower part of the firewall sections.
metal work is done on the passenger side.
Starting on filler work. repairing the **** that a body shop couldnt. Also shaved the filler hole. I forgot my slide hammer for my stud gun, so I couldnt finish the drivers side of the firewall.
pretty decent leg room.
I had to cut up the brake pedal to get the curve I needed to fit the floor. I will most likely be getting Lokar brake pad and a nice Lokar gas pedal.
