I agree with most of what you say, but I have to say one of the first things I do when hot-roding up a car is grind the fire wall down flat and install a nice clean piece of brushed aluminum.....

Sorry-the first post did not make it from Internet Explorer-trying again with Firefox --------------------------------------- Did anyone else catch the latest epsiode of American Hot rod last night with the 63 B Body? First off, I don't know why Boyd is so set on smoothing out the firewall and the cowl with smooth sheet metal. It does not do anything to improve the looks of the engine compartment in my opinion since they are trying to clone a MX Wedge (albeit with a Hemi).
The other thing I was amazed at was the amount of bondo they were throwing on the roof. I didn't see the first episode so I don't know what kind of condition the car was in when they started. Did they dimple the roof when sandblasting the car? Why didn't they chemical strip it instead? It seems like there was 10 pounds of bondo which is sure to crack down the road.
I'm wondering what it would look like in the end. At least they didn't throw a Chevy motor into it like they do with every other car they build!
