In the rebuild of my '55 Champion 2-door, it's time to re-install the
cardbaord-jute firewall thing.  My old one is typically cracked and cruddy
and I'm not wild about spending 75 more dollars on something so...well,
dumb.  Yeah, I know things will get warm & noisy without it, so has anyone
found something that'll work.  I can use the old one for a template.  Have
spent a lot replacing and reparing other things on this beast.  -sigh-
Thanks!

Talk to Ray about the black foam padding he uses... easy to install and
looks great when installed.

Go to: http://www.armaflex.com/
Look at their armacell insulation. If you can't find a local dealer, I
have some I can cut/send for $35 (it's not cheap- but it's very-very
good!) - you will have to trim it to fit. I use it for carpet pad,
firewall insulation, trunk liner, steering collumn seal, hood pad, etc...
