Project Crusty Biscuit (65 Plymouth Valiant)
Wow! I was finally able to get some work done on the car this weekend. I had to spend my last couple weekends building a fence.
I started some repairs on the outer cowl patching some rust and doing a few custom things:
In the future I plan on going with a aftermarket ac system without a fresh air intake so I decided to close off the entire outside of the cowl by deleting the vent and welding up the spray nozzle holes. I might replace them with the flush mount kind at a later time.
A slight amount of warpage occurred when I was welding everything together so I will definitely have to spend some time on it with my hammer and dolly. I will fine grind all of the welds once the piece is welded in place on the car. I am almost ready to do that but fist I’m going to POR15 the inside of the inner and outer cowl and seam seal the two pieces together.
