The Handle in front of the Crew Commander/Navigator seat is what I like to refer to the "Holy Sh*t Handle," cause there isn't much else to hang on to while going cross country. Wouldn't think these are hard to find since they are heavy gauge steal but should be easy to re-produce as well

Here's a shot from the inside Eric.
The cut is to allow the nose clip to be removed without disconnecting all the wires. You have a lot more holes in that side plate.

Default Maybe......

Hi Eric

On the voltage regulator I doubt that the original would have lasted 65 years... hard to tell.... all the ones I have seen on old trucks do not have the red tag on them.

In any event you probably would not want to trust it anyways. The best source for a replacement...plain black almost same size as the orignal... is a farm tractor shop and they will have repro in 12volts and 6 volts....... with the saem connections.

On your removable nose bracket...... best bet is to find a suitable size angle iron and fabricate your own....... the original was made from a 1/8 thick flat steel bent in a large press..... a local steel shop can bend it for you.... all depends how original you want to be.

Good luck

Boob

Default Getting good with a torch....

...and a hammer.

Now you will have to fill in that half moon hole cut out of the front bumper...... it never ends.

The flat stuff is not too hard ....it is shaping some of the curved parts that will give you a headache.

Keep sluggin' at it.

Boob

Default Braquette.....

Hi Eric

Yes I did find one....but only one....... would be easy to duplicate out of 2 inch by 3/8 stock...... but would be expensive to ship....

After the BBQ I will take exact measurements..... and photos and post on MLU....
