Well I got to mess with the car a bit this evening. I started looking at the fire wall and realized that it was like glued in. There were absolutely no welds holding it in. :shock: If i were a guessing man i would guess that aint no good. HA HA So I took out the fire wall and cleaned up the surface that it mounts to. I should get it welded in this Friday if i am lucky.

I was able to get a few things accomplished today. I got the firewall put back in and also got the pass a pillar tacked back together. I bolted up the door to see how it was going to look. It looked great. I am beginning to see a very faint light at the end of the tunnel. (I just hope that it is not a train :shock: )
