Off to work. Going to sand and grind tomorrow during the day since the weather will be nice. Almost done welding.

 

nice work, about to order my rhd clip from steve at hmotors. so you just clipped the lhd firewall out and layed the rhd on in and welded? looks like a good idea and time saver

Yup. Used a spot weld drill bit for the rhd clip. Used a sawzall and cutoff wheel for the lhd firewall. And then just welded the rhd one in overlapping the panels. Just had to make sure everything lined up before we started to weld.


Almost done welding have a couple holes left.

 

how long did it take to line up this way? i saw someone elses thread on here and he drilled both out and said it was about 5 minutes to drop the new one in and line up.

Way longer than 5 min. We trimmed the rhd firewall many times and test fitted it many times b-4 2slo started welding.

 

So, you found a shell for a much i spend at a bar in one night. thats a killer deal.
