    We don't have any photos for this thread, but we've always liked the B/W checkered firewalls...and I don't think anyone would refer that you copycatted the idea, it's just accepted as common practice. Bryan & Sarah

    I used Van Sickle "implement" paint. Case tractor "power White". It's kind of an antique white or cream. There are a ton of cool colors out there. Go for it. Red, Green, Power White, Yellow......... have fun. Gary

  9. This was only a Test, holly ****! If someone thinks we copyed them they should take it as a complement. If they didn't want it copyed they should have pattented it. You have my permission to copy mine. It's not as easy as one might think.

    may not be what your looking for ,but when i pulled the motor on my 53 i filled all the holes and ran all the wiring under the motor .the hole is behind the p***enger side head.then the wires run down the back and under the motor and back up the front.also put a plate over the heater box hole.
