Hey gang
anyone know where a guy can get some of these bumper bolts I need 8 of them for the ribbed bumpers the bolts have a curved head so it fits the rib in the bumper........... Any help would be great I even settle for used ones if they are in good shape
I think I leave the engine in the stock Volare spot and move firewall section back. If you move engine forward you still going to run into clearance problems with either pan. Car pan is shaped to clear steering and truck pan is a rear sump and will be in the way of the steering, Also truck pan is abit deeper to hold more oil as well . It seems to me to be more work having the motor forward. than it,s worth . just my 2 cents
Here is a pic of my engine compartment with motor in right location for the volare clip.... As you can see there is no room to run a fan on the motor< I have 2 push fans on the front side of the rad keeps it very cool. So If you move your motor forward you will have to also move the rad forward as well which may be more work and money for you . The last pic is to show the firewall section that I moved back . hope this shed a bit more light for you
wow almost looks just like mine .... when you put steering back in Flaming river makes a UNI steering joint to go from steering box to DD steering shaft
you will most likely be putting a notch in the top frame rail for the steering box I had to on mine then I boxed the frame in ........ It,s comin along nicely:)
yes me to
I have been sitting on the fence with a leg on either side LOLOLOL because I also have both and it,s nice to see what everyone else is doing also
Huh Get this both bumper are the same they are 2 fronts and the one on the front of my truck has been cut and tweeked to fit the front of the truck all hiddin behind the lic plate
I cut the bumper in half and added 1 5/8 of steel to the center section then made a lic plate bracket to the front side of the bumper. I will be making a bridge bar to fit the bumper that will go around the Lic plate to finish off the bumper
This is my first shot at a bumper refit..... My truck had this bumper on it when I got the truck . It is ok but just doesn,t go with the theme of the truck I think
So I did a refit with this 49 plymouth Bumper.. Had to cut in Half and stretch it to fit truck I will also be putting a bridge bar in around the Lic Plate to finish it off
Hey Tom
If you go with a 2 core ask about the cores that are close together. It will hold just about as much water as a regular 3 core. I have one in my 50 plymouth and It keeps the V8 cool. 300 buck is about the going price
