prolly, but i dont plan on driving this truck in the rain much if at all, and the cowl on the hood has been cut out and smoothed so water wont get into my engine bay as easilyi hope i dont get stuck int eh rain considering i took out all kinds of heat, the heater core, defrost, fresh air, a/c...everything was removed

That rear is a little too MiniTruckin' for me...but maybe after paint and a plate itll be a little more subtle

looks like you got some red, and gold and blue going on there. Has this been a project prior to your ownership? As for the rain tray, I cut mine outta my '80 as well. Didn't notice a seam where it used to be tho. I think the fire wall just bends 90 degrees at the top and heads under the windshield. You may want to put in an upper stress bar since you did take out some of the rigidity in the front. RJ
