A few pics of what the lower diff bracket for the rear arms looked like when it showed up at the shop.


After sandblasting.

Welding and file finishing.

Next we gave it some style....

Heres the front mount after


You would think that would be enough work on some lower suspension brackets...... ummm nope just wait.

Good looking truck, this is my uncles 36 low cab. Mustang II front leaf spring rear, 420 HP crate engine. I always liked the body style.

So as you can see the entire inside of the cab is structured with wood. One of the main reasons you dont see very many 30's chevy pickups and cars. So our first step was to replace all the wood with sheetmetal and replace all the rust also. Here the start of the left and right side of the floor structure.
We built it out of 16G cold roll sheet. Bent an angle then caped it and stiched in angels top and bottom to add strenght.




The drivers side tacked into place.


The back edge of the cab corner

Front edge tacked to stock floor

Here's both sides tacked into place.
