Spent the last week working on the final floor patches (rust) and installing the tubs on my Cuda. I am almost finished with the fabrication, then I can start on the bodywork.
I have been trying to figure out the best way to install the rear firewall and I am stumped. There isn't much room with my 8 gal fuel cell. Not sure which way I should go with it. I was looking for examples / ideas.
Could you please post pictures of your rear firewalls? If at all possible, please post pictures from the interior, and trunk.
Here is a photo with the tank and battery box mocked up. I have since put in the tubs, but do not have them sealed up yet.
Thanks in advance.

It looks as though I will have to take more pictures. Mine has been carpeted inside so some of the details may be hidden from view, but you should get the idea.
It really doesn't matter whether you win or lose… as long as you look good doing it!

Thanks Steve,
It looks like your bars go much farther back than mine. Mine make more of a straight shot where yours stay high then curve down at the back. Your fuel cell and battery are in about the same place as mine though, so your firewall will probably be very close to what I need to do with mine.
I will also have to carpet mine as per NSS rules.
Thanks again,
-Dave

Here's my 68 barracuda I took out the fold down part and put in a 1/8" thick piece of aluminum in its place.
