Post by: the old trucker on February 23, 2008, 05:33:03 pm: Hey Chopperguy, does your 1948 aluminum narrow gauge have an all aluminum tub or belly pan also??? If not where does the aluminum end & metal start??? If the pan is aluminum, what is used for engine mounts & frame work??? I'm very curious.
