Yeah, custom. Was a beast to move. The rear cross member has some custom PO touches. Calling Jason @reevesci

Started organizing the 25 parts and trying to manuever around my new to me 45 swb. it was not working well. I decided to build more shelves, but 1st insulation and dry wall. trying to keep my eyes on the prize!

 

[mmcinnis]

Went through some 25 boxes and trying to get organized. heres the only suspension parts i have. No springs either.

 

[mmcinnis]

Not all doom and gloom found a few Christmas miracles!

 

[mmcinnis]

Found a few parts not sure where they go but 1 had some nice paint.

I think those are the brackets that hold in the three chrome bars in the front bib.

how big is the retaining ring? is it holding a light lens?

What's the other side of the bracket look like? With the bored out bolts could be a heater mount.

I think your right nuclearlemon. The truck had some larger brake lights installed. Thats what i was thinking, wanted to confirm before i tossed it. I had concerns about the kick vents. When i arrived the PO had stuff scattered everywhere, lots of 40 stuff mixed in. i grabbed these hoping they webt to my 25.

 

[mmcinnis]

Well, i guess my organizing has led me to this! I have

[mmcinnis]

Welp cont. to clean and organize. Sets of beadlocks. Nutty

 

[mmcinnis]

I finished 1 wall. looks alot cleaner, found a bunch of missing tools in an ammo can i took to GSMTR 2011. HAHA. That's it for now. Time to tinker with the new/old toy.

 

[mmcinnis]

I would like to wish you all a Happy New year! Thank you all for spreading your wealth of knowledge and parts Im certain that this ol girl would of never run again. Hopefully 2017 we can fire her up and cruise. I've received some great oem parts and I've purchased parts. Should have a rolling chassis in Jan. Thanks again, Mike

 

[mmcinnis]

Are those two holes in the passenger side firewall for a heater? My '65 40 has a pair of holes in the same spot. Trying to decide if I'm going to fill them.

Yes, the heater was mounted on that side.

 

[mmcinnis]

Not much to report, gonna throw a picture in to keep the thread alive.
Coming soon fellas!

 

[mmcinnis]

So, ive looked and asked around and ive had no luck finding a gas tank. After talking to a forum member i think its possible to cut a 40 tank down. Unless someone has a tank, ill need the 25 tank dimensions. Thanks in advance Mike

If nobody beats me to it, i can get you measurements tomorrow.
Did the wheel template work out for you?
