how does the steering,oil pan etc fit? everything have enough clearance? I like the firewall. will you be able to fit a wiper motor in there somewhere?
keep posting pics, they're great motivators for the rest of us slow pokes.
Thanks for the comments guys, everything seems to fit nice, hoods going to be close but there's a 1 inch spacer on the carb i can take out if i have to, steering is a flaming river unit that bolts on and seems to fit nice, the steering will no doubt need adjustment but i think it should clear the headers ok. I'll get into that once im happy with the tin work which is still a long way off as the gaps are really bad but nothing time and the welder wont fix (I hope) Test fitted the dash and wiper motor and there is loads of room. I'll post up more once i get something to report.
