Re: 65 Fairlane pro-touring build

Waiting on an accelerator pedal piece from SendCutSend so I thought I'd tend to a couple of items on the to-do list. First up was making a piece to close the gap between the front of the tunnel and the new firewall. As with the main part of the tunnel, when the time comes, I'll glue it in with panel adhesive.

Another task that has to happen sooner or later is mounting the radiator/condenser/electric fan assembly. All the components are sourced from a 2017 Corvette, so they fit together like factory. Getting them in position and fabricating the surrounding areas to direct the airflow thru is my main focus right now. Work a little, wait on parts, work on something else, wait on parts...

Nice work on the tunnel, did you use a shrinker//stretcher to form the arch around the tunnel?
