I love the tailgate hinges! Where did you find those? Are they vintage or repops?

Thanks, I got them at some hardware store online.
They are made in India, probably made from metal from old ships...

Howdy, some updates.
First an bracket for an idler pully I needed because the new radiator
lower outlet would have been in the way of the fan belt.
Remember Studebaker engine and that is a mustang radiator.
Double mounting for rigidity. And of course my halfass welding....
Lights installed, stock front, old Ford type in the rear.
