Hey Chavez,
Welcome Aboard! Kind of quiet on here today so let's bump this back up
to get you some help. If you have a pic or two that will also get some more attention. We've got a 1950 F1 but we went with na ewer engine so our mounts came from Summit & No Limit Engineering.

Good luck over there & welcome!

I have a 53 with a cracked frame rail but good crossnenbers so am parting out. You can call me about it. 479 647 6325

 

Welcome chavez626. Don't blame the guy too much. He probably had good intentions, but bit off off more than he could chew. Now I'm no pro ,but have been working on my 53 for a lot of years and still learning. It's like a life long love. As for your cross members I get all my parts for an all girl company called MIDFIFTY.COM. ( 1-800-252-1956),They are located in Golden Valley, AZ. Just south of Las Vagas, AZ. They have pretty much any thing you need. I'd love to see some pictures of your truck. Mistakes and all. To me this is a hobby and I love it. If I can help just let me know. good luck and have fun.

 

Welcome to FTE. Pictures are worth a thousand words.
I don't have any spare crossmembers, but I'm in the process of restoring my 239 Y-Block. I am no where near an expert or even skilled, but you can check out my thread that is in my signature. If you are an expert, I'm always looking for advice.

Did I mention, we love pictures.
