Maybe you can give me some advise. I'd like to install a full snychro tranny in my '51. The mid tranny mount you used - is it a weld in style? I assume you still need to weld it to the frame horns? Where did you get it from? What style of nose cone are you using - Beetle or Bus? Looks like you installed a bowden tube as well. Any modifications needed to put one in? I'd appreciate any tips you might have.
Cheers.
