For helping keep this great

on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Aug 2013 Posts: 32 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Aug 2013 Posts: 32 | I have a 1946 GMC/Chevy 1/2 Ton. I have original floor boards and an original cab. I purchased the truck in pieces so I have not seen how it goes together.
Question 1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- There is a large rather square piece that clearly sets down on the floor like a tunnel or tranny cover. This piece fits nicely.
Next there is a more rectangular piece that goes on the lower portion of the fire wall. All bolt hole line up nicely.
These are the two main floor pieces. I'm not worried about all the little pedal stuff.
Each piece individually lines up nicely. You can clearly see each bolt hole.
Both piece nicely fit to each other when not in the truck.
My issue is that when in the truck the lower lip of the firewall piece is a little over an inch away from the front lip of the large main floor piece.
clearly they were meant to go together. I'm wondering if there is a rubber seal or a brace that I am missing to fill in this gab.
I will try to get pictures later today.
Question 2 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- How does the hood stay on? I feel I am missing a metal dowel that would run through the center of the two hood pieces. It looks like the cab has a place for a metal dowel to sit and then have some type of fastener over it.
I have no idea... I have not seen such a thing. I am just looking at what I have and making a guess as to how it could be fastened. | | | |
