shaved firewall in progress pics
Hi all,
Currently on the hunt for pictures of you guys shaving the firewalls mid progress, or start to finish..etc. I been thinking about fabbing some panels similiar to the slosh tubs... http://sloshtubz.net/shop.html#!/Fir...egory=18977115 or the porterbuilt... http://pbfab.com/73-87-firewall-filler-panels and was curious if anyone has installed these pieces and if they had any pictures/testimonial from the install? TIA

really just looking for people who have installed these panels or similar and had pictures and first hand knowledge. I messaged slosh tubs on instagram but he didn't have too much information. Big question is what to do with the booster bracing on the outside of the firewall when it is removed. How are people bracing from the inside? |

Re: shaved firewall in progress pics
I did mine just smooth finish. I left the whole behind the motor for the Engine ECM harness, wiper motor, throttle cable, and stock fuse block holes.

Re: shaved firewall in progress pics
I have seen street rods where they mount a piece of polished stainless steel to the firewall giving it the mirror effect. That's what i thought you were going for.
