Re: 1953 Extended Cab
Set the drivetrain today. Going to have to cut the trans tunnel to be able to slide the cab forward, into position.

Looks great. Glad you took the time to wrap the bed angles around the tubs.

Re: 1953 Extended Cab
Thanks. I sold the drivetrain. Now looking for a new one. Going to Goodguys in Charlotte this weekend (will be showing my Mustang). On the lookout for an engine.

Re: 1953 Extended Cab
Hey wizard, do you have a picture of your e brake cables hooked up at the wheels? I have the same cables but I think I'm missing some brackets. Can't find anything on Lokar or SSBC website.
