Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA

3-30 Today was crappy day, just didn't get alot of work time in and I started on my rad support, without my rad. I'm going to most likely use the same rad I'v used before, so it was good to take some measurements off my 51'. So this photo is basically what supports the inner/fenders up front. the rad will be tied into it some, but there is another xmember that you can't see that the rad will sit on. The PWS box just gets in the way enough to make things difficult. But I sectioned out a piece of tubing to go over the box and end to end of the frame. tacked it in. I then made two tabs with nuts on them, so you bolt the whole support together, incase you ever need to tear the front clip off, you can. I'm hoping to get the rad before I make the final mounts for it. This is just phase one.

I go got some 18g so I can start back on my floor, I'm gona have to make a tunnel in the back of cab some, I also have to notch out my xmember for my mechanical fuel pump. I have my engine a little farther back on this one. but if I get the radiator and get it in and see what clearance I have then I'll maybe move the engine up a snug.
