Thanks! I try to be thorough. 


I got a little more done last week.


Welded the end plate on the tunnel and smoothed it out. Didn't want any rough edges:



Pulled the engine back out...



Welded the tunnel inside:



and outside:



Slapped on some seam sealer:




Started cleaning up the bay for paint. Don't need these brackets or tray:



POOF! (still need to remove one more)



Then I had just a little more time so I chopped this



to fit here:



Then I decided this bracket was unacceptable:



So I made this. Not sure if I like it, may scrap it and just do a rod.



Should be getting my hands on a stock heater core and blower motor soon. Then I can finish up any changes that need to be made on the firewall and get the bay painted... More to come soon!
