What's the major down sides to losing the heat core/boxes?
Will I not be able to drive my car in the rain at all? (foggy windshield? I don't plan on driving in the rain but just in case I get stuck I want to get home).

get window visors. they allow you to crack the windows without getting soaked and it will bring the fog down a bit

The car didn't fog up much in the rain when I drove it last summer but I was in a completely different part of the country.

You can. Drill the spot welds and bolt it back on. That has been done allot. I just jack the car up in the front and pull the motor from the bottom, I think it's easier that way.

Are you going fully shaved or are you saying it's already fully shaved? I see a lot of stock holes there.
The car looks like a lot of fun either way. I've got silver-hatch-bias, though.

Hey what brand of seam sealer do you guys use when respraying an entire car?I know most of the seam sealer in the bays you guys get rid of but you have to use it in other parts of the car.
