I'm replacing the firewall with a *****n. 1) The body has a lip where the edge of the old firewall ****ed against. In removing the old firewall, I straightened the edge. The lip is only wide enough to cover the edge of the firewall (maybe 3/16"). Question: In installing the new firewall, would I be correct in thinking that I should hammer the lip over the edge of the new firewall? 2) Is the one flash coat of epoxy on the body sufficient for the area where it will touches the firewall? I plan to spray a little self-etch on edge of the bare metal firewall where it will touch the body. These may seem like silly questions, but I am 1) an amateur and 2) a fanatic for detail. Thanks as usual for your quick and helpful responses.... Opps...almost forgot...Question 3) Anyone got a list of bolt specifications for 36 Ford 5 window couple body to fenders, grille, etc...etc....or know where I can get specifications or bolt kit....???? Sorry guys, but I'm replacing the old ones....
Google Roy Nacewicz for original type bolts and kits. Most bolts are called out by size, finish, etc. right in your car's parts manual, under the listing for the part. Full details are then referenced in the hardware section at back of catalog.
Wow...So excited to find a resource that I googled your name rather than the supplier. After learning that Roy Lancaster was a very famous BBC presenter, attended The University of Cambridge Botanic Gardens, was on faculty for Structural Biology at The Saarland University in Germany, a featured author at Barnes and Noble, an auctioneer, Directed a video on "How Jesus Died", and was the International President of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car porters, I realized that your more famous as you have helped me find what hours of research could not unfold. Thanks.... ps...All of the above are true....
