Ahh I see so frame isn’t the same as say the body fender? I saw those spots in another members photos so I just kind of went with it without thinking much beyond they are both metal. I’ll take a peak around and see if theres something else convenient. I don’t think the radiator shipped with a...

Yeah I wire brushed the bottom one, the mechanic did that upper bracket so just making sure that’s a good spot. Sounds like we’re golden. Thank you.

Is this a proper ground for an aluminum radiator in a 62? Just making sure it’s ok over both those brackets.

These are the original rear speaker covers. $10 + shipping. Or an ice cold sixer if you are in SD.

Well here is the temporary solution until I can find a new rivet or better fitting screw. Basically just forced a screw into the rear of the rivet. Officially the hackiest part of my truck.

Yeah I may have to. The rivet is two stepped so not sure how it would work with play. Hmmm

Hmmm seems like that pin is a rivet included on the lock cylinder. So I wonder if I can find / buy a new rivet somewhere to avoid replacing the lock cylinder and needed a separate key?
