Model T Ford Easy Weld Boxing Plates
|
When building a street rod, throwing a modern day V8 motor in older day cars and driving
the higher speeds that we drive today, boxing in the original flimsy frames is a must.
Our Easy Weld boxing plates are cut undersized so that they would basically slip inside the
original frame rails, to allow for a V gap for great weld penetration, without the worry of
grinding away too much weld and sacrificing strength when grinding the welds flush. There
are steps or outward notches incorporated into our boxing plates to prevent them from
slipping inside the frame and making fitting and adjusting difficult.
These are cut from 1/8" (10 gauge) steel to give added strength when welding motor
mounts, crossmembers and etc to the inside of the chassis.
This is a 8 piece set. The two longer pieces run from the rear of the frame, right up to the
front crossmember. The main plates are made in 2 smaller pieces for ease of shipping and
to reduce shipping costs. The smaller pieces are for the rear of the frame by the
crossmember to allow you to add a lower gusset and then box them in, or leave the one
upper gusset and box below it.
These will fit all model T cars or trucks. The frame measurements were based off of a 26 -
27 Model T frame.
To state the obvious..some assembly, fitting and welding is required.
