I like the updates you are making to the front end! I have been doing the same swap as you are doing. You might want to go check out the first page on my build because I had to add the hinges for the hood into the cowl, and I am sure you are going to have to do the same.

If you need any help or have any questions just let me know.

Many thanks, Cutting the cowl for hinges and wiper update is planned for this weekend.


So far I decided to use other Front seats, but the Humps would position the seats too high.
So I cut the floor humps off, Designed the patches in CAD, had them Laser cut, and Ill be welding them on soon.
