    next up was to get the brakes sorted, i removed the body again (have lost count how many times it was removed and replaced) lol and attempted to fit the new pedal box, which mounts under the dashboard.


    thats when i found out that my firewall was on too much of an angle and the only way i was going to make it fit was to get the grinder out and cut a big hole in my firewall.
    I then fabricated a peice of metal to weld back into the hole, this was folded using a big hammer and the vice lol.
    it turned out pretty good in the end


    I had to extend into the area where the battery used to be located, so the battery now resides in the trunk. the area left over where the battery was will be used to house the msd ignition unit.
    I then smoothed up the firewall and gave it a couple of coats of paint.




    end p8
