Default Heater Box Before/After
I just finished rebuilding my heater box and replacing the core.

Here is what it looked like before


And this is after


And the cover


Also, here are some shots of the engine bay as I get ready for body drop

What paint did you use for the firewall (brand, color, texture, etc)? Did you use a can or a spray gun? It looks great!

Looks nice Craig,
Mine was in much worse shape ... needed lots of fiberglass work.
I forget if I painted it or not.
