    They came with the body when I bought it so I don't know where there from. None of them really fit right, but that's normal I heard. Gets me close and then I just beat em till they fit.

    Didn't realize after I painted the spindles I had to grind the tops to fit in the Lincoln backing plates. Live and learn.

    It's a Boling Brothers 4"-10" frame. Slow moving lately, hope to hop back on it soon and make some progress. Good luck man.

    How much chop ? You might want to consider lower cut lines as there will be less distortion near the curve of the window opening. Also consider making your back cuts in a lower area then bring it up to the back window. There won’t need pie cuts in the top. Just trying to help, looks great so far.[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    I just saw that you have to pie cut it if it is a straight cut. Kinda was messing around with how I’m going to do it. Thanks for the pics, huge help I think I’m going to go your route. [emoji1360]

    Back in Black. Shot some epoxy primer so i didn’t have to deal with flash rusting. Time to brace it up and channel it then chop.

    Tried to make these look like they belong there. Rounded out the cut so the heim joint blends in rather than a straight angle cut. Going to enlarge the curve a bit and weld in some round rod.
