Re: My 56 build

Impressive work, Jason!

I hope you don't mind if I make a few comments. Shouldn't you put some sort of screen across the louvers in the electronics box to ward off water getting in there if you drive through a puddle? The electronics box is a smart idea and wonder if you could put the electronics on a sort of shelf on drawer slides so you can pull it out when you want to service something in there.

Last, too late now but did you consider the old wheel barrow trick instead of all the metal work on your firewall? It really came out great but I imagine that was a LOT of work a wheel barrow donor would have avoided. But again, all nice work! Can't wait to see this build finished.
