my 47 IHC project.

Isn't it too high then? Sectioning the grille sounded quite resonable. Anyway - great truck and great work!

 

hell , she will be just right. check out the pic where the front end is laying on the dirt

 

The reason for the rust where it is----there is a drain at each corner of the windshield under the dash that is supposed to have a rubber hose attached to drain the frame to the outside. Feel up under the dash and you will feel two tits sticking out about 1/2" that the hose goes over, then the hose goes through the dash and drains out past the firewall. If this isn't hooked back up you will rust out in the same places in a short time.
Don't ask how I know this----I've owned one for 30 years and have fixed that area twice.

 

eh! good to know, thanks man

 

hey mate can u tell me what size truck it is ?
thanks curly

 

Mmmmm. Me Likey. I need to get to Iowa and grab mine and start wrenching on it

 

So,,do you have to section your grill and what not,,or just hack a inch or so off the bottom of fenders..Looks great and you could drive just the way it is long as you stay off the speed bumps...
Just shot my 41 with flat clear,,first time I laid it on too heavy and it came out glossy so knocked 'er down and laid 2 light coats,,,

 

Hi
I cut my front end off flush to the bottom of cab. The grill I cut the bottom off and then cut about 2 1/2 inched, then welded bottom back on. Take a look at these pictures.
