Finished up the details of the air box and set it in place in the car. It looks really good with the graining done.

Made some more foam board patterns today. Putting in some more aluminum panels, these go just above the transmission.
The patterns.

Where I am placing them there is an elevation change and this allows me to stack the sheets and sneak in a piece of extrusion for support.

Placing the panels. A few small details that should be quick and easy. Like moving the back up wiring and the ground strap. I can do most of fasteners tomorrow.

I ran out of hardware so still have to do final fitting. Really happy with the looks.

I have taken the last few days off to give my back a break. I worked out there for a couple of hours and the time spent away really helped. The bending over and reaching really hurts after just a few minutes. But today went well.

Getting ready to fasten down the new panels, also ready for another trip to Daytona bolt and nut. They want to see the car.
I love Calico clips

I like this material so much that I might make up a new set of plenums out of it. They are made from a roof flashing material and it's pretty thin.

Finished the with the screws on the panels and really happy with the looks of it. It gave me a lot of pain bending over the back of the car. I had to give it a break for 3 days so I could finish it up.

Still need to make up 2 more hoses but it requires pulling the oil tank so now I get to jack up the car in the trailer. I have to pull the plenum on the driver's side to get the tank out.

Looks good Joe. Curious to see the results in numbers. Is the air supply the two holes in the inner fenders?

There are holes everywhere, I just hope I can make the motors work. If any of the things that I have done to this car works it will be a surprise to me. All of this stuff keeps me from watching the TV. Sure helps me pass the time. So if it works as good as I think it looks it would be really cool.
The latest pictures.

@Shivers , first of all, thank you for making me think. Second I must apologize for not knowing, but in '12 I had a stroke and lost my mind. One of the things that hasn't returned to me is your first name. All these years of association and I would really like to be able to address you by your first name.
My solution to your query is to box in the intake of the air box.
I can make the top from Plexi so you can still see those horns.

No worries Joe, I have to keep my mind on a leash. Paul is my name. But I went and hung with family in New Jersey back in 2008, stayed all through summer and most of the fall. Me being a desert rat wore a jacket most of the time. The whole township was calling me Shivers... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) Lol so call me Shivers and know I respond fondly to it. Half the time my Wife calls me Shivers. Have a great day Joe!

Paul the cripple no doubt, but not from crippled krauts. We go back to the club days, NARP brothers and I'm a "Work Party At Joe's" multi- participant. SoCal914 was the old handle. If you don't remember, we'll just become friends again. I'm game

Long time ago, there was a crazy bastard here that photoshopped everything. Mostly irreverent images. Here is one you may remember:

And one I did for Howard:
