1960 C10 rear floor brace
 
1 Attachment(s)
It’s been quite awhile but I’m finally healed up and back to work on Rusty, my ‘60 Apache.
I’ve cut out the inner and outer rockers along with the bottom of the A pillar door jamb, and in my first attempt at welding have installed a new piece. Photos to follow.
That said I’m turning my attention to what’s left of the rear door frame.
My question is this, where can I find a reproduction rear floor to cab bracket?
Not the short one, but the one that runs all the way across the back of the cab.
I’ve been able to locate one for a67-72 cab, but no luck on a ‘60.
As always thanks in advance.
Regards,
DD

Here’s the rear brace for a 67-72 cab. I wonder if it would work

One piece floor would have it, expensive panel to cut up just for the brace.

Thanks for the suggestion, I checked it out and unfortunately the complete floor pan does not include the rear brace for the 60 through 66 models.

I have a few 63-66 one piece floors and the ones I have do have the rear brace with the cab mounts on them

Thanks for the information. I appreciate your help. I’m starting to remove the rear cab corner and hopefully get a better view and some photos of exactly what lurks in there. Unfortunately there’s not much left though.
