I picked up some 3/4 inch plate to make the spacer for the top of the frame to make it same depth as van frame and some 1/8 inch plate to make a box around bolts

Ya got a few, Maybe a bunch Bud. But ya don't have the most. There are guys here that would put Rush Limba or Tim Allen to shame. There was a list your fleet thread going a while back. Liked ta made me cry. Some really cool old Iron for sure.

Great tear-down photos 429. It's helpful to see these apart. Thanks for taking the time to take pics!
