Thread: I just picked up another "project"...

Tweet

I have made some progress on the '49...
I set the "chevy" engine and trans in place last weekend and am working on the engine and tranny mounts. I will have the engine mounts welded in later today (am at work right now...) and will start pulling the cab so I can have free access to the trans and frame to start building the crossmember. I had to cut the old trans xmbr out and I have to remove the rest of it by drilling out rivets.

I am going to do a little more trimming on the engine mounts to move the engine another 3/4's of an inch forward.

This is the drivers side with the shorty header in place...

Thanks for looking

I ordered an American Autowire Highway 15 kit from paradise Road in Indiana. They had a killer special on them along with free shipping so I saved myself about 70 bucks! Thanks Paradise Road!]


The AAW kits are very complete, right down to new ignition and headlight switches, and will make getting this truck wired up and running pretty simple...
