Re: American in Austria 83 Build
Got a few more things checked off the list today. Finished shaving the firewall. Filled just about all the holes except for the throttle linkage, hood pull and heater box. I decided to shave off the outer seams and weld them up. Im going with an aftermarket wiring harness so I will mount the fuse box somewhere inside and run the wires through the fender most likely.
Also welded in an original radio frame (cut it off a blazer) the previous owner must have had an aftermarket radio installed. But I plan on going with an original looking radio but with the new bells and whistles.
So next step is to take care of the windshield frame rust holes. Then I will have part of the cab bead blasted. Probably just do inside the cowl and a few parts under the dash. The rest of it I can strip off myself.
Thats all for now. Hopefully get some epoxy on this soon enough.
