1952 Dodge Pickup

[pplace]

Nothing too serious here, but thought I'd show how I had to change the cowl sides in order to blend nicer into the door jambs I made earlier.

I had cut a fair amount out of the cowl side earlier in order to have room to add the inner door jamb structure and skin.

In this picture you can also see the cowl end of the horizontal support bars that come from the radiator support. These bolt through the cowl and into a cross bar in the cab that some interior components were mounted on.



New side panel fit and welded into the door jamb. The toe board also flows down the jamb edge a bit also.

If you look close you can see the I dimpled the jamb and so the nutserts that the fender edge bolts to are flush with the surface.



This is a close up of the angled "step" on the cowl. The top of the fender has the same angle and that nests into place when bolted on. Also a slightly better view of the flush mount nutsert.
