Re: 1959 Chevy Truck

Thx Kim and bigtim,

Crazy thing is, I went just a little more forward with the wheelbase so the rad support mount was right on the steering box. I cut everything around it so it would clear the steering box. So ended up loosing the original mounting spots on bottom of support. I did some fabricating and got it on there. I decided to move the radiator in front of the support and that created a lot of extra cutting and fitting to get it right. I think it looks pretty sweet with it so close to the grill, but now I need to figure out a different way to latch the hood.

--anyone ever have an issue with the rear of the hood sitting up real high when closed. But can push it down with hand. It was like that before. But it's even worse now.
