Mark,
Fantastic! Just what I was looking for! Your car was built 10 cars before 1134, so your pic' proves the extra inner 3rd and 4th bolts thing was done at the factory! What 1134 is missing, is the wings that go from the top of the shock bracket up to the frame! (This is what I saw on the car in Vegas, #1254ish) I can just see the "punched" holes that lighten and strengthen it, but what does it weld to on the side of the engine compartment!??? What is odd, is a modification that occurred later.....or #1134 passed #1114 on the assembly line.....

Your jackshaft pulley is an odd one like none I've seen before! As is the valve cover bolt arrangement....That's a unique setup I thought reserved to exhaust pipe bolts on Harleys, so that you don't strip out the cast iron.... Not a problem typically with VC bolts on Fords!

Looks like you've got a good solid car to play with!!
Thanks for the shot! Take one of the top of this bracket, where it attaches to the chassis/engine compartment, perhaps it can be duplicated!

Steve
