Re: my 47 build

Those look like stock mounts for the later Chevy/GMC trucks. You might just go for a 49-55S1 shock. Those flipped shocks look like some type of helper spring, though I've never seen one quite like that.

Nice truck, by the way.

Re: my 47 build

Here is before and after on the carb rebuild and the after on the under
hood wire harness. The before can be seen in a prior picture. Yes that is the same carb. I plan to get everything mechanical done and running smooth then take everything apart and do the under hood and rest of body restoration.
