Here is a customers nova we are building a fire wall for.

Wasn't much to work with but it's getting there. It came in all cut up like you see in the first pic.

What do you think?

NICE!! I have a nova that I peeled off the original firewall with a plasma and welded in some 16ga sheet.

Yours looks good. Umm, why did you keep the holes behind the brake MC? I needed to make new mounts for the new MC and steering column so I made it all one piece and worked the new stuff in. But I didnt get up into the cowl and now I wish I would have. Looks good!! JR

JR , thanks.

As far as the MC and steering column holes. That is how the customer wanted it. It makes things easier.
