Here’s the start – an unboxed pair of frame rails |
|
Since it’s a full fendered car, we’re welding in blocks for fenders, running boards and body mounts. We’ll drill and tap them later. | |
The initial placement of the boxed rails in the jig. Once everything is checked against the blueprint, we’ll make some additional fixtures. | |
Here’s a shot of the body on the frame with rear-end temporarily set in. We wanted to run a decent sized tire, so we knew we would need to narrow the rear rails. | |
. | It’s pretty obvious here the frame will need to be narrowed a bit. |
Here’s a shot after narrowing the rear rails. Enough clearance without getting crazy. We’re tackle the inner fenders soon. | |
Added some holes to the rear ladder bar brackets. | |
We’re starting to get the rearend and rear crossmember located now that we have axle centerline. | |
