My chassis is done. She's going to the body shop for final work and paint.
I have a few pieces left over from the parts that went to the powder coaters. Were any of these important to have in the car?

My take, starting at top left and clockwise: Master cylinder spacers not used with Wilwood pedal box, transmission mount adaptor I think only used with a Coyote, famous hood pin brackets (how many of these does Factory Five have???), cover plate I think this one for the LH tank mount in the trunk, bottom one looks familiar but don't remember.

Thanks Edward. That helps. I don't need any of them. Doesn't look like I forgot something structural.
Just not sure about the last one on the bottom. Maybe someone else recognizes it.

I think it is a mounting bracket used to adapt the donor radiator cowl to an electric fan. Maybe, perhaps.

I took my hood pin brackets and made a dead pedal out of one of them. Agree w/ Paul, how many kits has FFR sent out w/ hood pin brackets after they changed the hood hinges? That's a lot of metal that could've been saved. The best is when they send random parts that aren't even included in your kit. And in my case, they had to send 3 dash aluminum panels before I received the correct one. The original one was for a RHD car, then they sent one without the bent bottom lip, before they finally shipped me a correct dash.

Interesting. I don't think I have that transmission adaptor. I may be reaching out in a couple months lol. Please don't throw it out.

I also made a dead pedal from 1 of the hood pin brackets.
