Well, So did I!! But I decided to get over it and with the direction of a few guys at the shoptalk forums, I went ahead and put a new frame head on my ’64 vert today…………………………………
Frame Head Blues

A couple weeks ago I put new floor pans into the chassis of my vert. It took all weekend, but it went well. the next weekend, I was dis-assembling the front end when I figured out, The Frame Head was bent! I didn’t know what to do, but after some research and some questions, I went for installing a new Frame Head.

Here is a few pics

With the chassis leveled [?] using a laser level and shims, I took umpteen measurments wrote them all down. I then figured out where to cut the frame head to allow the new one from Cip1 to be welded in. After putting out the rust fire in the tunnel last night, I went to bed and thought about this all night…hehehe. I then cut the old frame head out, and tacked in the new one. Proper dimensions and level and square, I welded it all up. I am happy I decided to take it on!!!!
