    Thanks guys. When the owner bought this he never went and actually looked at it. It showed up at my place and when digging into it we found out it had been made out of scrap wood, duct work metal, screws and rivets, with bondo to cover all that up attached to an original firewall. When we picked the body up it fell into 3 pieces. So I was determined to build him a all steel setup and alot safer than what he had bought. Sent the straight 8 flat to Tulsa and had it rebuilt and beefed up and converted over to 12 volt. It's been a long process for sure.

    What about these for the cowl as in original Chevy. 97 / 94 carb frogmouth scoops could pass, something vintage marine perhaps ? I have a few other photos but no measurements of OEM car that is hand fabricated aluminum
