The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Making a Stovebolt Bed 1953 Chevrolet Truck spare tire side mount

So I’ve been looking for a forum here that would show illustrations on how to install the side mount spare tire bracket on the bed of my 1953.

Figured I’d give this section a shot (beds) if anyone has exact location or a template from the factory to show mount hole locations.
I know the side mount was first offered in 1953 but haven’t had any luck finding any info.

If you have this info or know where I could find it, please let me know.

Also, is there a forum here that would have illustrations/templates of factory mounting locations.

Such as the front bumper picket fence support bracket hole location, fog light hole location, passenger side exterior rear view mirror, side mount spare tire bracket &, well you get the point.

I have a couple of these already, but would be nice to find a on stop shop here for all that is needed to assure everyone building/restoring a Stovebolt, does it the correct way.
Meaning, drilling holes in the correct spot the first time.


Thanks in advance to any replies in this.
Make it a great day!
