After weeks of metalwork, the 1963 Chevy Nova firewall is fully patched and welded. This video shows the completed work including all the patch panels welded in, rust repairs, and modifications made for the gasser build.
The firewall had significant rust damage that required cutting out compromised metal and welding in new patch panels. No shortcuts, no filler, no fiberglass - just proper sheet metal work done the old fashioned way with my own two hands.
You'll see the finished firewall metalwork, welding results, and I explain the steering column opening modifications and why certain changes were made for this hot rod build.
WHAT YOU WILL SEE:
• Completed firewall patch panel welding
• Rust repair metalwork results
• Steering column opening modifications
• Firewall restoration walkthrough for 1963 Chevy Nova gasser
This is real hot rodding without the fancy parts or big budgets. Just a guy in his garage doing the work the right way, one weld at a time.
Subscribe to follow the entire 63 Nova gasser build from start to finish.
Drop a comment if you have questions about the firewall modifications or metalwork process.
