Howdy,
I'm trying to put back some of the original sheet metal parts and for the life of me I can't identify what and where this part attaches. All the angles don't seem to fit any other angles. The attached piece of rubber may be some clue that it fits up forward of the cowl?
Any help on this and how it fits in relationship with the other sheet metal pieces would be greatly appreciated?
Peace,
Chaz

    that fits in the corner of the RH inner fender between the piece that is parellel with the firewall and the part that faces the engine. The rubber you see is remnants of the mud flap

    Well, thought it was in that general area because of the attached rubber. So is the piece in the pic oriented correctly? It is difficult of visualize how it connects to the other pieces. Any pics of this in place?
    Thanks!
    Peace,

    Those two top holes in your picture go over the studs that are on the angled brace from the fire wall to the frame. Since you changed the frame you may no longer have that brace. If you still need photos I can get them tonight.

    You are correct! I no longer have the angle braces. I now see where it used to go. Thanks guys!
