Default 1952 Dodge Pickup

New to the forum....

To help introduce myself a bit more I'd like to share one of my past projects. This 1952 Dodge pickup came to me quite hacked up with previous work started by someone else. It was basically a "gut" and start over job. If I can figure out how to post pictures properly I'll share some highlights from my portion of metalwork on the project. I hope you enjoy.

This first pic series involves the custom firewall I fabricated.

Here is the only before picture I have of the firewall / cowl as I was mocking up the drivetrain in the chassis.

Here you can see my design of the beadwork both on the firewall and the recess flow at the same angles as the valve covers. I also decided to have them fade away near the sides of the firewall.

Here I've jumped ahead and have the firewall and recess fabricated and welded into position for the most part.

Here I've fabricated the forward sections of the floor, kickboards and transmission tunnel.
