The project is looking great.  I am going with your method of installing the cowl with epoxy.  One question, how did you weld up the holes where the screws were?  With the epoxy and sealer behind it, didn't that cause a problem with the weld?  I'm assuming it worked.  Fill me in on the trick.  thanks

The cowl screw holes were a little of a pain. I removed as much of the epoxy as I could see. I then welded from the firewall side. It did flare a little on a few holes, but once it cooled I was able to fill it properly.

Have been stagnent for a while.

Car does not build Itself.

Mounted both front fenders, upper and lower front valence. lining up body lines, doors to quarters and fenders.  Almost wish I never took the doors off to redo the hinges. It is an absolute Bi%$H to re- align.

Hope to have the front end aligned this weekend. Maybe even in primer. :)
