Take a look in my gallery. There is a photo of an orange truck (not mine) that has a full tilt front end. You can see that on both sides of the cut the fenders have a filler piece that braces the fender. On this one there is also a pin that locates & locks the hood into the correct place when it is closed.

scott, i took a look at your pictures, and put some braces in and it works now thanks for the help . ron

 

I dont know what you mean by a tilt fron??? But from the pics it looks like the reccomended braces will fix it right up.

 

Ron
I am glad that I could help.

There are a bunch of different levels of extreme to these tilt fronts. I inherited mine and it's great for working on the engine, but what a nightmare it has been to design bracing to prevent metal fatigue.

I have lots of pictures of some on 56s I will post as soon as the photo post mess is fixed.

In the mean time, the beauty of my portrait signature phot will have to do!
