back to the cowl

side cowl removed

now that the side is removed i can get to the toe board that needs some patchs not replaced.

gr8one · Oct 3, 2010

now for the toe board and small floorpan repair

all the bad spots are removed

by the way here is a pic of the chisel im using its 15" long (i got it at work we call them dragline scrapers i dont know the name if anyone wants to know what they are i will ask purchasing) they work great and are long with a pry end. and they ARE SHARP on both ends VERY HARD steel.

That's a ton of rust in the cowl area. Looking forward to seeing the cowl come back together!

i hope to have the cowl back together in a couple of weeks after toe board and floorpan repair, rust treatment and paint all exposed areas.

Look like you have some cool projects cars, I did the inner cowl as well and mine was in the same condition. The reproduction inner cowls fit great. Heres a couple pics.

Hey all..!! Just joined up this site after finding this thread. I'm a '67 Fastback owner from West Australia. Making a start on my restoration in March 2011(I'm building an Eleanor, flame me if u like), so I'm in the research stage at the moment... soaking up as much information and know-how as I can before I start. My dad is an auto-body repairer (we call them 'panel beaters' Down Under) so I have the body work covered.
Anyway, i'll be following this thread with interest, so hopefully it stays active and current. Nice work so far, gr8one. What are your final plans for it..??
