Did you do much metalwork on it?
Looks nice, long way to go (just like me)

[Chargen69]

well, I havent done anything on it but disassembling.  friend of mine who has a small shop is doing all the work.  as far as the car, it was an AZ car, so the only metal work really was the roof (vinyl top) and right rear quarter where somebody it the thing right behind the door and raked it all the way down (lots holes where they pulled it out), and the engine bay transformation, other than that, no there really wasnt that much wrong with the car other than a really crappy paint job.

What holes are you planning on filling in on the engine bay?

[Chargen69]

Looking good so far ...hoping to get there on mine soon!

[GTXtreme]

almost all of them

like this?

[Chargen69]

actually not that smooth.  gonna leave the character of the firewall, but hide all the junk

[PatrickPeeters]

How are you going to connect everything? (wiring and so on)
Looks clean, but does all of the things stay working?

I'm curious, how?

its going to be just about hiding as much as possible.  Putting on a universal wiring kit that we will be able to route lower through the firewall than stock. rerouting the vacuum lines for the headlights through the backside of the fender, things like that.  Some things are unavoidable due to money (I'm not just way over original budget, I'm in a different solar system), but anything we can do that we'll do

[GTXtreme]

I rerouted some of my harness through a lower portion through the fiewall and the headlight harness runs through my fender. I will try to post some pics when I get home from work
