59 apache rear cab questions
 
hello all,

The inside cab mount bracket (the one spot welded to the floor and rear panel)and the outside(under) rear cab support bracket are rusted through on my 59 apache. This truck had most of its life up state. My question is are there any aftermarket companies that make these pieces yet? I can buy the sheet medal piece in between the two but these pieces aren't available just yet or I cannot find themhttp://www.hotrod.com/how-to/paint-b...etal/#photo-03. This is a pic of the bracket I need to replace. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Photo is not showing up on my computer... Is it the part labeled caged nut in this photo? Bottom "bracket" is part of the cross brace.

Thanks orrieG for the quick response. You are correct on the caged nut pic, this is the top bracket I need to repair or replace. From the second picture that you posted it looks like the part I need to replace in the floor panel rear reinforcement. My bottom brackets are completely rotten and would have to be replaced or fabricated from scratch.:banghead
