Just looking at the front shock mounts. Maybe a gusset at the 90* for added strength. But, I'm just looking at a photo. I love the lines of the truck. Very nice.

We cut down the stock bed to 54" in length and its 40" wide. When I bought the truck and donor car, it came with a new repo tailgate,front bed panel and rear sill. We didn't use the rear sill but narrowed the gate and front panel.
Haven't decided on the floor but a friend of mine gave me a steel bed floor from a 66 shortbed. It's a little on the heavy side,just have to see what it weighs when I get it cut down.

The grille is a stock 41 grille that the top three tiers have been used. The vertical outer pieces have have been shortened and swapped sides with and positioned horizontal. Then the bar that has the Chevrolet script on has been positioned at the bottom. Hope that makes sense. If you will look at my other posts you will see it more plainly.
