Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Feb 2014 Posts: 319 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Feb 2014 Posts: 319 | My '59 hood is painted and ready for mounting, but I've a question about the hood braces. One of them is bent, and I've seen similar on every Task Force truck I've looked at. I'm assuming the bend is to provide greater clearance for the air cleaner, eh?
Unfortunately, I can't remember which brace goes where, and if the bend should be toward the front or rear. The Factory Assembly Manual doesn't show any bend in either brace.
Anybody help me out here?
