Re: 1971 Stepside LS Build

Very clean- good idea
Thanks. I was originally going to screw it into the face of the radiator, but decided to weld the tabs on the back side to just pinch it in place. It is very solid.

Radiator hold down cover changes the look completely....Brilliant. Now I have something else to fab.
Started with a 32" piece of 16ga metal. Measure three or four times and it isn't too bad of a project. Good luck
