Re: 55 Wagon Progress

Thanks guys!!


Sorry for the hiatus, more travel for the day job.. hanging more TV's...


Back on the wagon, sometimes I get ahead of myself. The core support has rounded corners at the bottom....





Our embossing did not....





So the lower embossing was flattened, and marked for the new..








Next on the list, our upper radiator hose is a bit long and needed some support to keep it out of the fan. It's actually a lower hose for a Ford Explorer, but is a perfect fit for our cross flow radiator. So some 16 gauge cold rolled steel is used to fabricate a support bracket..




















Next, we had moved the battery from the OEM location on the firewall to the dealer installed Air Conditioning location behind the core support. This has the battery in close proximity to the passenger side header, so we punched some louvers on the core supports side baffle to allow for air flow.
