    Did you bend up the center a member or is it a kit. Following your build, and like what I see

    I usually bend my own but I got lazy this time and bought one from Pete & Jakes. It saved me some time but I could have made it cheaper.

    Man, if I were you I would cover the sending unit hole in the fuel tank. My luck is something would end up in there that I didn't know about and cause future problems.

    Some brakes is right! I've got the same ones on my '39 and they work exceptionally well!

    Once the body is installed, will you be able to disconnect the fuel line, if you need to slide the tank out the rear to service sender, etc.?

    Dumb, 7:00 AM question but are those backing plates on the correct side? On mine the emergency brake hole (on the back side) point towards the front of the car.

    The more eyes the better. I am glad to see you finally covered the fuel level and pick up holes in the tank we discussed a while back. LOOKING GOOD!

    Pretty sure the primary shoe (smaller of the two) goes toward the front.
