I need pix of how much of the firewall is exposed near the blower motor. I'm redoing my car. Some wanker modified my car with side air louvers.. smashing in the side firewall area, screwing up the blower motor area bad. I think i'm going to just patch it up and spray it with por 15 because i'm going to go with a vintage air setup. I just need to know how much is visable by the eyes underhood, anyone have pix of that area? thanks

make sure you can fit the blower motor in the hole, but otherwise you should be okay.

I noticed you have A/C as well, and it will certainly be all covered up.
