I’ve been chasing several rattles in the ‘48 Suburban Streetrod since the day I brought it home 5 years ago. I’ve isolated and fixed most, however, the worst one kept eluding me. It sounded interior, around the door trim or under the driver side dash. Searched and searched and could not find it. Yesterday I went out to start it as it hadn’t been started in a couple of weeks. I opened the hood and gave the carb a VERY short shot of go go spray. Opened the door and reached inside and turned the key. Fired right up but guess what? Yup, heard the rattle. It was coming from outside! When I leaned over the drivers front fender to listen in the engine bay the rattle quit. Further investigation found the fender brace missing. So this morning I dug through my parts and found a brace and some bolts, nuts and washers and put it on. Started the Burb and lo and behold no rattle. Not the last one but it was the most annoying one. I’m a happy camper.🛠
