hey everybody. im working on a 93 GT. like it says above i have some cowl damage do to my fiberglass hood coming up and contacting cowl. I was wondering if anyone had any good info or links on what is the best for repairing or replacing cowl panel. i didnt know if its best to cut from a doner car an just patch damaged sides or if its better to cut the entire panel from side to side. thanks in advance for any responses. i appreciate the help.

 

if you are gone to replace the cowl be ready to remove the dash and windshield other then that drill the spot welds and use a chisel to break the panels apart then weld them back together. and your gone to need a donor car cuz Ford don't have them any more.

 

OUCH!![:@] That's going to be an expensive labor filled lesson you've learned.

 

your best friend without pulling the windsheild etc https://www.autobodytoolmart.com/p-11895-14606.aspx
if you can find someone to pull it out for you and then finsh with filler nad prime, paint and blending off all the adjacent parts

 

seriously is it that bad? it just looks like the top part was bent slightly down, im sure with some bodywork you could pop it back into place, of course im talking about mine, I dont know how bad yours is

 

i had a friend that his 4" cowl hood fly open. smashed the **** out of his cowl panel and windsheild, only to find the cowl panel had already been repaired with almost a half inch of bondo

i think before i send my parts car to the junker im cutting that peice out

hey thanks alot. i knew some one had to know how to do it. yea it sounds like a pain in the a##. but its got to be done. and yea i learned a lesson alright. dont get caught in a rain storm with drag radials on. Hydroplaning sucks. hit a wall with the front end and the hood came up after the latch broke. gonna need some new sheet metal. thanks again.
