Re: Hotrodelrods 54 build

1) These are the stock type motor mounts with insulators and they are welded to the frame. Is there a better alternative?

Do they position the engine correctly? If so, can you replace them with bolt on to the frame? Or you can fabricate mounts that will fit and position the engine.

2) The previous builder attached this mess to the front end for radiator mount and I think front bumper. Again, any input on a cleaner, better way to do this?

Someone will probably jump in with some ideas. Look around on here for something better.

Also I've cut out the rear x member to prepare for boxing the rear most part of the frame and fabbing framing for the gas tank. Is there any reason to leave the frame ends open for access?

Bumper mount access, unless you weld in some nuts.
