Default Buy 63 Lemans heater firewall block off plate

Does someone make a heater block off-delete plate for firewall? Or is it just simpler to custom make one? Thanks Bob.

They are very easy to make. My friend made one for his car a few weeks ago. Google pictures of a 63 SD Tempest engine compartment to get an idea. He did that and had a plate made and screwed to the fire wall in a few hours.

Thanks on the Stan Long car. Do you have any pictures how exactly the rear leaf springs were mounted? I have pics of the car but none showing spring mounting.
