Re: '59 4x4 Build

Before getting into the body work I did some odd stuff, like the rear axle spring mounts. I cut off the stabilizer bar mounts and removed the temporary spring perches, used to get the pinion angle correct. I had a new driveshaft made with both transfer case and pinion yokes. I blasted and powder coated the front and rear differential covers, and made an inner front fender mount, as one was missing. Replaced cut out sheet metal around the radio bezel to original, and bought a retro AM/FM radio with Bluetooth to go in later.
