Finally able to finish the trunk off on this one, got our powder coated covers back from coating and installed.
Installed the trunk lid stay.
Very happy with the end results.

If I wasn't on the back 9 of this hobby, Cobrakiwi, I'd be giving you a call.
Excellent stuff.

Thanks Rodney.
More progress on this one, I got the foot box's fitted and mounted, made up the firewall and got that installed.
I did not get time to make and fit all these inner panels prior to paint ,(paying for that decision now ) so now I need to be super careful not to scratch up the paint fitting these .
This one is really coming along nice.

Front Transmission cover ......you might want to change from a 90* degree to a 45*degree angle to be able to remove the bell housing in the car....if necessary.....

Just a thought.

No need, that panel is a removable panel for trans / clutch service, a few screws and it's out.
