"Albert" -- 1949 AD, S10 Chassis

[HUSSEY]

I finally got around to getting the front bumper brackets made up. I used some 1/4 in. 2 in. flat stock with a 90 degree bend in them for the bracket to the bumper. This bracket then bolts to a bracket that I welded to the frame. Not sure why I needed a separate bracket that bolted in-between the frame and bumper but that’s what I came up with.

maybe someday you want to run with no bumper, ADs look good like that. I had a 65 chevy and the front bumper mounts were part of the end of the framerail, so without a bumper it looked cool but had those bumper mounts sticking out. so it was run a bumper or cut the frame off.





anyway, your truck looks fantastic!

Thanks man, this site has been a wealth of information for me!
