Smooth firewall
Sorry for the dumb qustion but when you shave the firewall and fill the holes at the heater box this just does away with all heat and defrost correct no need to have them with no blower trying to decide if this is what I want to do on my 68

Re: Smooth firewall
Well you can fill the firewall and then run a Vintage Air setup which then pulls everything under the dash inside the cab. All you would have is four lines going into the cab.

Re: Smooth firewall
Thanks buddy!
Each build has it's own unique factors; can't wait to see what you can do with yours.

Re: Smooth firewall
I bought the complete Master Cylinder/booster/bracket as a set on Ebay for about $200.
Inner fenders are painted with same paint as rest of truck. The hardest part of the inner fenders was to install them with no scratches. I dry fit everything before painting and then disassembled the entire front clip for painting separately. then I bolted the inner fender to the outer fender and installed them as a pair. Thanks for the compliments.
