Re: Interior fireall cover?

One reason that I don't like wires to be too hidden is that more often than not I was the guy in my group who ended up troubleshooting wiring issues when we were on a club or group road trip.

My best friend who was more of big brother than buddy had a 29 Model roadster that the guy who wired it for him did every wire in red. Story was he got a great deal on several large rolls of red wire of different gauges and wired several cars with it including Ron's roadster. That was fun to deal with on the side of the road.

On my 48 I still have the 48 Fuse block cover that that i had Waco plating chrome in1973. I won't have any fuses under it or at least dond't plan to but it will cover the hole in the firewall that the wires come through the firewall . Then out the regular 48 openings in the bottom of the cover and neatly routed where they have to go.
