The only damage to the firewall was at the base where it angles down. No damage anywhere else and the was from the clutch Z-bar hitting the firewall.

Such a great find that wasn’t as secret as you thought. Johnny and I have talked about this car a few times, even a few months ago.

Your car will clean up and come back to life easily!! I don’t even think that dent can be called “damage”.

I do not understand how the car was not rusty? Dirt floor garage/barn? Standing water at least recently....... I don’t get it? By the condition one would assume it was stored somewhere else.... But others have shared pictures of it in the same place from decades ago.... incredible!
