Guy,
after further view, I think your ax is too short.

I have another one that I can look at. I thought it odd that the end of the handle is so close to the bracket. Thanks for verifying the locations of the handle mounts yesterday.

Passenger side panel. I have to look at the shovel head bracket and see what we can do. The one from my A1 should be in good enough shape to copy.

Anyone need the straight 151 rear floor? The stiffener ribs have a space between them (running front to back). I have a request for one and will run a small batch. I'll keep the same price as the "standard" rear floor - $150 plus shipping.

We made three of the early floors. One is sold, others in stock at this time.

Our website is in the process of being updated. Pictures are posted but Bruce is going to clean them up as far as the background goes.

Found this at York yesterday. Listed as A1. Is there a difference between A1 & A2 with this part? Obviously the suspension is different but is the spring pocket location?

The pocket location will be the sane since the wheel has the fall in the wheel well and the upper spring pocket is the same throughout the models. And I need that piece, How much do they want?

So I've been thinking about this part and if there's a difference between A1 / A2. I'll check mine to confirm but I'm 99% sure that the A2 spring pocket depth on the inner fender is not as deep as it is on the A1. If that's the case, I'm guessing that there is some type of offset on the part. I might be able to compare mine tonight. Stay tuned...
