I get 50 degrees at the toeboard to floor on mine but I will check some of the trucks in waiting in the morning.It seems that every one of these trucks are a little different.

That would be a good idea.I is allways good to see somthing that you are building.
i would have him make it a little big so you can trim to fit.

im using about a 5x10 chunk of sheet metal and im gonna have him bend it so that i can have firewall, floor pan all in one chunk so all i have to do is weld the solid piece. makes less welding and itll look smoother imo

Should look clean. let me know if I can help with Measuerments we have a few of AD trucks
