Re: Scott's '51 Build
Getting much more time in the garage now. Got my gas tank mounted with an angle welded on at the rear crossmember and added a small crossmember in the front. Used some weld in nutserts from Jegs to attach the rear of the stars and welded bolts thru the front crossmember for that end. Also had to trim up one of the cross sills to clear the tank and sending unit. I have a strip of 1/8" strap I'll weld alongside the sill to keep it solid.
Also cut the bedsides for tubs. Still not sure what size wheel/tire but decided it was a good time to do this, esp since the roller wheels rubbed against the bed. I found a pair of 60's truck inner wheel wells I may use for the tubs.
