Re: 1951 Chevy / C4

I had a good day today. Started the morning with a 2 hr call with Trently(aussie54). Then started on mounting the radiator. I had to move it forward because it is the c4 corvette one and I used the electric fans also. It worked out pretty well. I used the same holes the factory uses. I used a piece of 2 1/2 tubing and then welded two 3/8 nuts to it. That then was welded to the bottom of the support. Then bent 1/8 plate for the fender supports. I still have to bend the 1x1 box for the outer fender braces. I also modified the c4 hoses to work too. I then jumped back to the drivers rear fender and made a whole new lower front because it had a bunch of filler over top sheet metal that was just brazed over the rusted holes. So now it is all new. I wanted to get that done so I can fix the running board supports after it is bolted up.
