Continue to fabricate rear right hand passenger side torque box;  Could not located any original concours replaceable torque boxes so decided to fabricate our own to match existing original torque boxes and graft them on to the rear frame rails in a manner that this could not be detected;  Cut mounting plates from aftermarket torque boxes;  Fabricated an inside splice;  Jigged and balanced torque box to fit properly;

Cut original E brake bracket off original torque boxes and welded to new fabricated right hand passenger side torque box;  The swap over turned out very well for concours and detection.

12/20 68Biff Kevin:  Sandblasted miscellaneous parts:  Rear fold down seat mounting brackets, one for each side;  Rear seat clip brackets, both seat back and seat base;  Made ready to weld in Mustang.  Checked inside body panels for rust damage and conversion.
