Re: My 57 build (lots of pictures)

A friend and his son came over to help sit the cab on the frame. I fit perfectly to my delight. This just reminded me of how much damn work is ahead of me.

Re: My 57 build (lots of pictures)

What is the total lenght of the frame? What was the length from the front of frame to the first body mount and then the second body mount?
