Re: Starting 1966 Factory Short Bed Build, Bagged, 383 Stroker and Muncie M20 4-Speed
i do have a question. The old gas tank mount bracket, must it stay in place? I would like to remove it if possible.

They aren't required w/no tank but they do help tie the floor & cab wall together for additional rigidity. You could always trim off excess like jrusher did to clean it up a bit.

Now i like that idea. I was a bit concerned with removing them and effecting how the floor rigidity would be. sometimes the simplest things can be so hard to see.

Update:
additional pics and Pics of Headers being wrapped Found a bit more rust in the driver side front panel, so patch panel on the way. I also found alot of seam sealer on the inside which i have not found before, or at least that i know of. So i ordered seam sealer from Eastwood. |
