Re: Hood braces? Mine are missing

This is NOT my truck (I wish it were!). It's a '58 Short Fleetside that is BEOOOTIFUL. It is/was for sale and a member on this board from Australia asked me to check it out for him. I did, but I don't know if he ever bought it or not.

Anyway, apologies for the iPhone photo but you can see that the builder used steel rod and turn buckles. Not exactly my taste but it does accomplish the goal of adjustibility and look good...I guess. Before anyone asks, he sprayed an undercoating under the hood before the truck was painted.
