    I think you would be better off finding a complete stock cowl assembly Matt, and I'll tell you why. The side pieces and top are only a small part of what it takes to make this assembly done. There is a firewall, cowl top section, cowl side panels, dash support rail, side support rails, and numerous braces that have to be installed to make it strong and rigid. The cost for all these pieces is really high.

    On the other hand, we found a mint complete cowl assembly at a swap meet a while back for $ 300. It came with everything in front of the doors, including the windshield. I think the same assembly from Brookville would be in the neighborhood of $ 1200 to $ 1500, but I am guesstimating.

    Here are a few of the parts that go into that cowl assembly. In the first picture the subrails at the bottom, the wooden blocks, and the windshield posts are the only parts not part of the cowl. As you can see, there are a ton of pieces that make up the cowl.
