Re: Wife's 48

Today was a slow day, and I think I cheated on the radiator bracket mount, but I think it'll work.

I used two pieces of frame I cut from the tail of the frame for the 90's to make the angles. Then I fit them between the inner fenders and the bracket on the frame. Then I tacked them to the bracket and removed the fenders so I could drill into the frame and tap for a bolt to hold the radiator bracket to the frame. I have two cab cushions to go between the 90's and the frame. I even cut out for the steering adjustment screw.
