Started welding in 69 modified shock towers, a fair bit of massaging to fit aprons to the custom firewall as well

Are you keeping the battery side shape, or making a mirror of the left side?

I see you fitted the standard Rhf inner panel with the batter space.

I see a lot of people mirror the left panel to the right. I think differently as that makes less space in the engine bay.

What I have done is mirror that battery space to the left as it can be used for cold air box, or anything bulky as it gives so much more room in the engine bay.

Just a thought while you are working in that area.
