Re: Evans Aluminum Heads
I have an original set I’m planning to use for a 59AB in my 35. Anything I should know about these?

Re: Front axle lowering brackets
Thank you, he’s still looking for the pair he stashed away. But if he can’t find them, I’ll have to see if I can locate some for him.

Re: Need a copy of body mounts for 47 coupe
The bolts are 5/16 x 24 I might try drilling on the two hardest to reach ones though. Otherwise it’s major surgery. The rest are not so bad.
But I’m not looking forward to the running board cage...
