Any apron to cowl extensions you can find ..YOU BETTER HOP ON THEM ASAP !!! Thats one of the most common rotted pieces & it's also 1 of the hardest to find in good shape ! I was lucky & bought a mint used set way back in 86 I knew I was going to need them..You did see my cowl repair vid's ? Just scroll thru my vid's to see them

& I have a slide show here showing some of the cowl work..

Yes i seen the vid, its been help full in scoping out my fix.

 
ill llook tommorow about extensions i had a set that werent that bad but they did have holes i just tossed them because my mach has perfect ones, if not i may head ot junk yard this week and i know there is a coupe there that i will check i found a perfect passsenger side cowl on it and cut it out for my car so something u need ought to be good on it

 
The Battery Box Support is not available....But I think I have a solution....I bought an Extra Apron and will cut out the shape of the support and Roll the edges to look "Kinda" factory....but that piece is needed to properly space the apron to the frame rail....

Fixed the PS apron extension,

Fabricated a new lower battery tray support.

pick up my upper battery tray tomorrow ($13 NDP)

Alex has a DS apron extension for me.

I think that is the last of the sheet metal i will need to finish the body.

If any on wants to know how i did the battery support let me know and i will walk you through it.

It took 2 1/2 hour to fabricate.
