Re: 1957 Chevy farm truck from Australia

Slow progress but i did manage to remove the inner guards from the front clip(rusty bolts in hard to reach areas suck) so i could double check wheel position in fender.

Im happy with that.

Currently doing some measuring and drawing for a rear notch.

Re: 1957 Chevy farm truck from Australia

Posting a small update as reading back through what ive done so far keeps me motivated to push on.

I drew up C notch sections on CAD and had them laser cut.




Lock in gussets with holes for cross members.




Lots of welding to do, should keep me busy.
