Re: My 1965 build thread
I will use a ac/heater unit under the dash with a bulkhead plate on the firewall similar to this.

Re: My 1965 build thread
I know people will never see it after it's all done, but until I get it done everyone will see it. It would always be in the back of my head unless I do it. That way I can say I did the best job that I could do. Like I mentioned before in a previous post it's a sickness. I thought a restoration is to restore it to like new condition.
On to the progress..............I finished welding up the firewall and tacked my fuel filler hole plug in place. I also prepped my outer rocker on the Lt side for welding. I still have to replace the Lt cab corner

Re: My 1965 build thread
You're doing a good job on it, want to come and do rust repair on mine? I've got to get me a welder so I can save on body work, come to think of it I might want to learn how to weld. Anyone got a welder I can have so I can teach myself how to weld?

Re: My 1965 build thread
I got a little more done. I'm waiting on another Lt cab corner because the one I had was wrong for some reason.
Pix 1-Firewall primed 2-Primed outside of the doors 3-Primed floor pan 4-Primed back panel 5-Good mark door blocked after 3 coats of primer. I got dizzy looking at the door so I thought I would prime and block to see everything. I've got alot of work to do. As you can tell I decided to use new doors instead of repairing my old ones. It should save me a little time
