Here is a picture of the old and new grill shell support. The new ones are made from stanless steel which I polished.
The frame is now completely boxed, all welds have been grinded and body work is now underway to clean it up. Next step is the final install and welding of the of the rear components. Once complete the drive shaft can be ordered. Then the rest of the drive train can be installed for a test fit.
Motor is in the box sitting in the shop (details to follow), trans is in my garage. Test fit will include header install and steering fit, as well.
Stay tuned...
