Project Crusty Biscuit (65 Plymouth Valiant)
I was tired today and forgot to take pictures of how I made the gussets for the shock mount. I basically just got some thin cardboard and put it up to the mount and traces the edges with a dirty finger. Then I added lines with a pen to get the desired profile. Some bending is involved so I did Relief cuts where the bends needed to go before I traced them out on the steel. Here’s them attached after welding:
You can see where I had to make Relief cuts to bend the steel to match the profile.
