Hi , Hotrod Lincoln
I agree with you but your post made think about the fact in 1948 most roads were in far worse shape than now . So all the extra bracing now really isn't necessary . Also it's possible without to much trouble to run a brace from the engine side on the radiator support to the frame if needed . For now the the rubber pad under the radiator support has been removed and it's bolted solid to the frame . Where as the the front clip now rest on the hinges . With the hood bolted to the fire wall is nice if I have to take the front clip all the way off , I can just pull the hood if it rains .
