Well it has been a while since my last progress pics of the coupe so I figured I would post what I have gotten done the last few weeks. I finally got my firewall bent and cut down to fit and welded in. Man was that a chore. Also got my vega box plate welded on and mounted in place. Plan on plumbing in the brake lines this weekend and putting the motor back in. Got all my floorboad metal ready to weld in. Almost forgot I also got my grill shell chopped 5 inches. Kind off been slow lately but still plan on making it to Vernon, Tx in August. Thank to all the hambers for the help.

Looks like you're puting a SBC in your A, correct? How far back did you move the firewall? What kind of fan are you using? What's going on in Vernon TX in August? What does HAMB stand far? As you can tell I'm new to this board but in the process of building a 30 coupe with a flathead. Thanks.
