Lots o ways to mount them.

The special thingys used to mount mine (forget the name of them) are just one way.
Talk to your body shop for more ways.

I have a link in the old computer to the thingys - need to get more. When I find the link I'll post it.
May be a while......

Looked in the mail programs in 2 computers & didn't find the link to the parts (still have to look in the 3rd retired computer).
I'll try & remember to take pictures of the ones I have ........ someone on here will know what they are called & likely know where to get them.

Keep in mind they were only part of how mine is (was) attached.
Several custom made brackets were also used.

The front of my car has been taken apart, so I cannot test fit to see if used on a 4 cyl car, the lower rock shield can be eliminated. (duh....if I have time I'll test on my blue parts car)

For sure, a bracket will need to be made for the center. Maybe not on a 4 cyl car ? Maybe the original center bracket can be made to work ?

V8 rad..... stone shield needs to be cut......brack ets go each side of the rad.

This will remain a 4 cylinder car only for some time and then go to a V8. I'm going to be modifying it some :) First are to finish some other projects, but this one will be fun...

Personally I'm planning to use 3M double sided trim tape everywhere I can & several aluminum brackets that I'll fab up to support the bottom.

I'm not in a real rush, I like having it here though :)

After I paint my truck, I'll do the Pinto!
