    Ed, I don't know about an "inverted firewall", but the indented firewall was late '31 only. I believe the start date for those was May or June '31.
    You wana look waaay far up da road and plan yer route because the brakes are far more of a suggestion than a command!

        It's not like those "BITCHIN" firewalls, for engine conversions.

        I wish my brain and typing skills would work together LOL. I meant indented.
        In my younger yrs I used to fly acrobatic airplanes that went "inverted".

            Indented firewall Mode A’s
            by Poor Boy
            Good evening. Some of the questions on another topic have got me thinking. Were the indented firewall Model A’s made in all the assembly plants, or only in some for specific markets where the laws required removing the fuel line from the passenger compartment. I have been interested in Model A’s for well over 50 years, and don’t remember ever seeing one in person. Maybe I have just led a...

            Late 31 gas tank for a indented firewall
            by merjohn
            Will a late 31 gas tank for an indented firewall fit into an early 31 firewall?

            Anyone know how many spot welds are on each side of the late '31 firewall? I'm counting 6 or 7.

            Firewall insulator
            by wayne1230cars
            I have been thinking about this firewall insulator. For anyone who has installed the insulator. Is there a noticeable reduction in heat and noise? Thoughts or comments?

            Firewall update - Before and After
            by Mickey
            I'm really glad you guys convinced me to attempt the repair rather than attempt to replace the firewall. It wasn't that hard but it isn't quite as good as it looks either. But I plan to insulate it on the inside so no one will see it.
            P.S I now have a perfectly good indented firewall coming out of blasting and being primered for the guy that really has to replace one.

            Followup Firewall question
            by Mickey
            Based on the area depicted in the the picture below would it be likely that the patch I need could come from any donor 30-31 firewall and not just from an indented firewall?
