Removal and Cleanup
So i cut the tops of each side wrapper as I wanted to preserve date codes on the metal, top piece of the cowl and the Dash as its really the top piece of metal that goes over the cowl. These show the sand blasted cowl, donor top cowl, and original dash.

Finished
This shows the adding of the side wrappers with butt welds that are ground smooth and replication of all the original spot welds across the cowl. What this also doesnt show is alot of hammer and dolly work on the parts of the firewall that were not perfectly flat, but now are.
Top cowl when in first, followed by the dash, then last was the side wrappers Last edited by OneStopRestoration; 08-16-2023 at 01:50 AM.
