Good luck on the build!
Not sure why someone zip tied the radiator, the lower part of the air box really is the only thing that holds the radiator in place on these cars. Maybe someone ran a tube intake at some point and that was the alternative.
We just finished up gutting an 02 B4C roller that sat for 5 years, rear window broken out. Found a wrecked 100k mile Z28 in great shape that donated all its parts to the B4C. Only original part left was body harness and dash. Car runs great but need to find a Pewter front end for it. Its half black right now.

No sound deadening garbage more likely, had a stock box with that stuff removed for years that has bounced around on about 3 different cars. None of the aftermarket have those ribbings.
