Re: My Antarctic Blue Super Sports Wagon with the C.B. and optional rally fun pack

The firewall recess for the 6 cylinder just was not the look that I was going for with the V8, and I didn't like the amount of bellhousing that was visible in that configuration so start from scratch it is. I'm going to take some design elements from the original firewall and incorporate them into the new. That necessitated ordering some 3/4" beading dies for the beadroller. I did some test pieces, will definitely have to put a lot of pre-stretch in these with the English wheel before I roll them!

I also picked up a scratch and dent steering column out of the Speedway garage sale, going to paint it anyway so what are a few scratches!
