Man, that front end is coming right along. The engine bay looks great all painted up. Good job. I see you're cutting on the rocker, what's the plan there.
 
here is an interesting part...these bad boys hold the wiring to the fenders...called fir tree something or other...old vs new pic...had a hell of a time finding em

Where did you find them? I sure would like to replace mine!

That front clip looks nice and crisp! Time well spent...
 
Napa has the fir tree style Balkamp 665-1392
They might have to order them

Moving right along, Osage. Looking forward to your interior work. What's your thoughts on floor treatments, I ask everybody. I want to do it right the first time and be done with it. Everything is really looking nice.
 
scrap...i have struggled with that for awhile...i have the original and in very good condition floor mats for this bad boy...front and rear...i believe i an gonna put in quiet crap...front to rear and put the mats down...in the rear area i will cover the quiet crap with a rubber mat i plan to make from the diamond plate rubber sold at mcmaster carr...i made mats for sons fj40 and they turned out very nice...so there you have it...the floor covering plan...i will also be installing the quiet crap in other areas...roof...doors...rear quarters
