Thank you gentlemen, great looking motors and cabin area ideas! I'm leaning towards the original paint schemes but the shiny tins keep sparkling at me. I do know it will take time and planning. I don't want to slap a heat shield together, call it a day so I can go out for a ride.
Viewing the photos raised questions. How are you mounting the lower tin? Will 90 degree angled metal brackets screwed on to the side metal sheets be enough? What about the very rear? Use the rubber seal pressed against the inner fiberglass body? I took a few photos so you can see what I'm looking at.

I don't see the rear half of the frame that is usually in the engine bay area. Where is yours? If you look at Bruce's engine area there is a frae that goes around the engine bay.
