    Can someone help me identify these brace rods from my '52 PU powder coat project. Old gray mare can't seem to remember from where they came. Has to be in/near the front fenders/core support area.
    But for the life of me I can't find in my pics or find the right distance.
    They are a LH/RH pair about 26" in length. Not the smaller lower corners or inner liner to firewall adjustable ones.

    Any help would be most appreciated.

    I believe they are supporting rods that go from the top of the radiator support down to the center of the grill.

    Gotcha, I've not quite built out that far yet probably why I can't see it. Didn't want to get too deep and have to unwind to get back in proper assembly order.
    Much thanks

    Ah! I can see (now) the ghost marks in my disassembly photos on the upper core support and the lower chin/splash shield behind the grille.
    Much Thanks! Was going to ponder that all night.
