Anyone going to smooth their engine bay?

[93fakesnake]

I'm going to order these panels in the next week or so and before I did I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a group buy on them. I was going to see if we had a good response and if so when I called them I was going to see if they could give us a break if we bought a few of them. Check out the web site. Bets welding and sanding for the next month

If we get a group buy together I might be interested in a set.

[93fakesnake]

I'm going to call tomorrow and see if they are interested, I just wanted to get an idea of who might be in.

Thanks for the link, I just found my door panels for the race car!!! :thumbsup1:

[Shibby]

I'd be down for a set of the third ones down also...I think that'll really clean up the engine bay when I put the modular in it...

[Mustang Leo]

Man I like those third one downs also. kinda like the hinge version of panel cover. if you get a discount for SEFB lmk

id definitely be in for a set! do those just go right over or do you have to cut out the old inner fender area and weld those in??

and is that $115 a pair? thats worth every penny!

[93fakesnake]

Yea thats a pair and they fit right over the stock location and you weld them in

[midnight stang]

interested in the 3rd ones also.

[Patstang]

[yanko 15]

[1wildcoupe]

I had Scott made my upper firewall piece.

I might be interested....Id really like to see some better pics though....I have always planned on just welding the holes because I don't want to see the edge of a panel where it meets the original fender.

i mide mine but they look no where near that good i like them

[FoxRodStang]

GEO302, those look real good from the pics. Can you see where the fender stops & the panel starts in person?

[FoxRodStang]

excellent then. do you have any pics of the main harness routing? along the firewall in particular.

[GEO302]

The harness is running accross the rear firewall still,Under the ledge.
everything else is behind the fenders.

[GEO302]

I also re-routed the brakes lines.
There run accross the k member ( With room to flex ):thumbsup1:

how bad of a job was that? Can you go into detail about the routing? Ive heard of guys rerouting them to below the pinch weld, but never on the K member....I like the idea of it, but I'd have to find a new spot to put my proportioning valve.

I purchased a new style brake tubing from napa.
You can twist it,Turn it,Turn it back,Twist it again,Make a circle,Twist it back straight = And it WILL NOT BREAK.
It made it easy to flow on the UPR K Member

just to throw this out there for anyone contemplating hiding the wires in the fenders and is a little intimidated by it, it is one of the easiest things ive done. Dont fear it! the results are well worth your time!
just make sure to take your time, look over everything ahead of time and no what your getting rid of and where you'll move stuff and do it!

[asheborogn]

I need some major work done under the hood of my 86.. Love the smoothed look....

[93fakesnake]

Just a update I emailed them on Fri and am waiting for a reply

[Quinn]

eventually gonna pull this motor out and clean up under the hood and i want the 3rd ones down but it will be about christmas time

[Bizarro]

the hump in the 3rd down is for tire clearence.... unless your going to keep it on a drag strip an run only 3" wide in the front.... YOU WANT THAT HUMP! :thumbsup1:

for what car?...you'll have something different by x-mas! :lol1:



i didnt buy any panels for mine... did it the ole fashion way.. i cut metal out of a junk hood an made what panels i needed an welded in 187 holes " no lie!" did the typical bodywork on everything.... pulled the dash....rewired the whole harness behind the dash an had to add a few feet to certain areas but nothing MAJOR hard, just a bit of a pain :yes1:

[Bigeasy08]

i wish i would have been able to get one of these a year ago...

[Gixxer10002004]

just orederd a set of these. Got to say very great people to deal with.

[darren]

Just an fyi, I was on Holcomb's site yesterday and they have the same thing available. Not sure if it's the same guy's stuff or not, and didn't compare prices. Just thought I'd let you know.

[Gixxer10002004]

Thanks for the info!!
