OT'S 47-51 ??? Rebuild ??
the old trucker:
Thanks Gror !! I appreciate it. ;D 8) ::) By the way Gror did you make a removable belly pan in case you have to work on the engine ?? If so, how big? Gror or anyone that has a ford 300/C6 combo, can someone get a measurement & pic of where it sits in the frame, as I have no body sections to use as a guide.
Example ; Measure from a cross member on the frame to a certain part on the engine or trans. I would like to get this done at the same time as the mounts & pan are done as I have to put the frame on my trailer & haul it down the road each time I want some welding done.
Thanks from OT.

Thanks KPM for the complements. I am in a bit of an emergency @ this moment. When we cut away the old tin that acts as a heat shield for the engine, I forgot to get a measurement of the height of it before. It was cut away with a plasma cutter. I still have the old stuff but it's hard to line up.
I want to make sure I want to make sure that I end up with the right angle of the end pieces like you can see in Grfishmakers reply # 18. I have to replace everything across the back end. I have it geared up to get my welding started tomorrow.
You can see what I am talking about at the start of my rebuild in pics 3 & 5.
A stressed out OT.
PS. I'll soon be as forgetful as you.... Grfishmaker !!!

O.T. The tin is 17 1/2"s high at the end by the tranny and then the angle length at the back is 6 5/8"s. The small angle iron uprights go about 1/4" past or higher then the tin. Hope this helps you out.
the old trucker:
Thanks Orin !! Now all I have to do is wait for the call to bring her to his garage.
OT.
