Re: 67 Plain Jane C10 396 build

I broke out the torch this morning and dimpled the frame for the steering box. I used my special tools; an old lower control arm shaft and an old ball from a lower ball joint.

I also notched the core support mount.

Next on the list of frame mods is to notch the frame for the big block. I took these patterns off a 68 C10 short coil spring frame.

The X's are the bolt holes for the engine mounts, etc...
