Working the firewall is going well ..
In the mode of filling up holes ..
The repop firewall under dash pad came with plastic push in fasteners .. Meaning the tail will be sticking out of the wall on the engine side ..
Since I'm shooting for doing a smoothie firewall, I have a idea of welding in studs .. Got a order pending for the parts to pull this look off ..
Will have only two cables going though the firewall, the throttle & speedometer ...

Filled the hole for the E-brake ...
The R-100 truck used a hand operated under dash E-brake with a huge cable going though the wall .. Most of the other trucks that International made had the E-brake in the floor ..
In order to get rid of that hole & cable we have this that at the moment is on the wish list ..

E-Stopp Push-Button Electric Emergency Brakes
E-Stopp push-button electric emergency brakes are perfect for custom trucks, street rods, or any vehicle. They not only free up room on the chassis and in the interior, but double as an anti-theft device when the activation button is hidden.
The E-Stopp units will work with any kind of braking system that can accept an emergency brake cable; and they mount anywhere there's room on the chassis. Kits include the actuator, the control box with lighted push-button switch, and wire connectors. E-Stopp push-button electric emergency brakes are controlled by a microcomputer that regulates the amount of pull--they will only pull up to 600 lbs. before they're locked down.
The button has a detachable head for easy install, and allows both visual and audible recognition. Also included is a patented ignition safety feature that renders the brake inoperable while the ignition is on. E-Stopp recently added another ground sync wire that can be hooked up to the parking symbol light on your dashboard. Again, this system can be used as a theft deterrent by hiding the e-brake button under the dash or in the glove compartment, or by installing a kill switch. Basically, if someone doesn't know how to unlock your rear end, they'll have a difficult time stealing your vehicle.
A bit pricey just for eliminating a hole .. !!
All the wiring will be routed though this passthrough custom billet block ..
(I hope, there will be a sh*tload of wires)
